I 100 % agree.

There are some more really good projects around in the Linux world, and 
usually they take care to have their main releases put into the major 
distros regularly - and in a way that lets them integrate flawlessly.

We cannot compare Windows with Linux here, however, as Windows is a 
(relatively) homogenous environment whilst Linux PCs can differ in many 
more ways. Package management is way more complex here.
