          Oh you mean for personal use… I manage a mixed environment with about a thousand Windows workstations and 300 Windows Servers, about the same amount of Linux servers.

          At home I only run Windows for Ableton Live cause VST plugins don’t work on Linux :(.

              Unfortunately a lot of our core tools don’t have supported linux client software, SCADA clients and power flow/transmission grid simulation etc, but we also aren’t a business so it’s more about what gets the job done since we’re basically mandated to do what we do.

                  We run virtual workstations and terminal servers for specific purposes, but a lot of our decisions are guided by NERC CIP standards and where certain things fall within that framework. The Windows workstations are probably the easiest part of this whole environment to manage though. It’s realtime data and all the applications linked to that where the complicated stuff is. If it was up to me we’d be a Kubernetes shop.
