Yes Linux / Unix does have a learning curve but think of the advantages!

--No need for Anti-Virus (unless it's being used as a mail server of course)
--No real need for a firewall
--No need for anti-spyware
--No need for a defragmenter

These can easily add up to a few hundered a year in subscription fees NOT to mention the cost of upgrading the OS, which, in Linux / Unix is free
