Windows runs computers, thats why.
Windows blows. The number of vectors of attack on a server running windows is insane compared to a Linux or Unix based OS. Most of the Internet runs on Linux based systems. If you aren't in IT I can understand you not knowing this.
Windows is the best for gaming. Other than that, if you don't wanna get hacked you should use something else. If you get a group of sysadmins together and ask them if you have to keep my server safe from hackers, which OS would you pick? Only a fool would pick Windows.

I know one can use Windows without getting hacked. But it is not even up for debate that it is more vulnerable by far than *nix. But using one as a workstation is one thing. I wouldn't do that. But putting it on the open Internet is a nightmare few who manage servers for a living would do if they started a new system up today.
That's not to mention the cost and how much of a resource hog a Windows server is compared to a comparable *nix system.
These companies use Windows because they have always used Windows and they just paid the price for that mistake.
