I convinced my work to allow me to use Linux on my work laptop. I have far less issues now.
In my experience, Windows breaks way more often.
I can't confirm this, since W7 until now on W10 I have not seen a BSOD again. This only happened to me in previous versions on a few occasions. It wasn't that serious either, restarting and issue resolved. In the past with Ubuntu, which at the time was a disaster, I have had many crashes or I have been left without a desktop due to incompatibilities with it's Compiz, changing to Kubuntu this no longer happened, resulting much more stable. In general, the current OS, be it Linux or Windows, are very stable OS.
Something breaking doesn't need to be a BSOD. It can be minor things that either don't work properly and annoy you, or something that breaks and now gets in your way.
However, in all three cases I would still say Linux is better. I've administered many hundreds (if not thousands, I honestly don't know) of systems. So I'm not just basing my opinion on a few systems.
