There's a lot of differences.  Starting with the developers.  If you 
come along to our meeting you can find out for yourself.  You can't 
answer this question with a single sentence.

Because it's faster, secure and stable.   You shouldn't really ask 
this kind of question on a GNU/Linux list.  Someone may not like you 
for doing that.  I've seen some very ugly replies to this kind of 
question.  I stopped using MS products back in 1998 for the above 
reasons and of course the peculiar licences that MS provide with 
their software.  Thou shalt not install seems to be a large part of 
their philosophy :)
