It's surely a source of embarrassment.

If it were me, I'd want to minimize my "Windows exposure," particularly
since people _will_ notice this sort of thing, and _will_ make fun of
them for it.

If there's any area where Linux _IS_ strong, it's in the area of web
hosting; it should be a no-brainer to find a decent Linux-based vendor.

They are trying to solve the harder "desktop" problem; you have to admit
it looks less than ideal if they aren't using Linux for the "easy"
stuff...
