This one line probably summarises why you like Linux, you're interested in
*learning* about new things, and love a challenge!
Anyone with these personal attributes usually loves Linux, and those who
don't have them, hate it.

Who would, Windows is a waste of time and resources, in my opinion. I
personally have not had Windows on a machine of mine since 1997.
Keeping a Windows tin cans and 100m of string in case you want to talk to
someone over 100 metres, is pointless when you have the latest Linux radio
wrist watch!
