that kind of practice went out the window in the early 90s when Microsoft flooded the press with lies about what its software could do and dumped tons of marketing brochures in managements mail boxes. Management started dictating what tools the engineers/developers were to use.
What's amazing is when engineering even has to have a discussion as to why Linux development should be done on Linux machines. It still doesn't stop them from sending a side group off to try and figure out if they can setup a cross-compilation environment from windows machines. Fortunately, the cross compilation environment is very difficult to set up, and they've decided it's worth buying linux machines for people doing linux development.
