Teresa, That's a pretty fair assessment of Apple, Windows, and Linux. As you said with Linux there isn't a single goto source for technical support and is mostly available through mailing lists, forums, or wikis setup by Linux experts. Microsoft and Apple both have paid support which is very good, but have more restrictive guidelines and interfaces for developers. So there are very different advantages and disadvantages for developers and end users.
