Check the end of the article for his comment.

I think having CS students learning about OSes by using Windows borders on
criminal negligence. Hell, even learning CHI stuff...

"Shurn estimates that when he first started at Howard a decade ago, nearly
all computer-oriented projects involved machines running Unix-based
operating systems. Now, he said, about 80 percent of assignments rely on
Microsoft Windows."

Ugh. Windows should be used in the same manner that AntiPatterns are used
for Design Patterns...to show what NOT to do.  :)
