The operating system is irrelevant to any musician worth his salt. The important thing is that you have a robust DAW that supports all the VST plugins you use and does everything you need. Ardour is a laughing stock compared to Logic, Live or FL. Last I checked, it hasn't even caught up to the feature set of Garage Band, which is a stripped-down version of Logic designed for 12-year-olds.

Hey there, speak for yourself. I like to think of GarageBand as Notepad for music. Perfect balance of features just enough to jot down an idea or throw together a loop. Logic Express and Pro then allow importing of GB projects so the analogy tends to hold well.
