This is true. Unless they know what they're talking about.

Unless you tried Vista some years back and have been in a bubble since, then there's no excuse for you to be this clueless. XP and Windows 7 are both almost universally acknowledged as great operating systems. And they are both capable of more than any other OS... unless "running software" is somehow not factored into the equation.

Power users began to shift away from windows well before vista was out:

I could go on with almost every industrial branch, not to mention scientific research.

The software industry at large is still using Windows.

I should know, I work in it....
