Good question! Also why isn't there a Linux version? Maybe there is some collusion somewhere between two of the major monopolies in desktop computing?

Their server offering includes Linux.

Their desktop version doesn't. Their target audience is large to very large enterprise. Their customer base is overwhelmingly windows based. They know this, so they've shrunk their dev costs to account for it.
