Linux(Unix) will forever have a popular following...being an elitist one(sometimes), but I succumb to it, also....simply because it's so much FUN to use.

Windows users= Point and Click = 'Hey, this is fun'
Macintosh users= Point and Click and Type = 'Hey this is fun and exciting'
Linux users = Point and Click and Type and Open and Close and Swear and Piss and Moan and Upgrade and Read and Type and Bitch and LEARN. Repeat...

After all...the Linux users become increasingly more comfortable with their systems, thus more happy with them. Kind of like learning how to drive a car with a manual transmission...once you get used to it, it becomes fluid.

I would hope that anyone, no matter what OS they use, becomes so 'fluid' with their systems that they can divert any problems and enhance any supremacies in their particular OS, that they can be wisely referred to as an 'expert'.
