For me personally:
1) The religious zealotry (the whole 'GNU/Linux' thing) pisses me off to
no end.
2) I played with Debian about 2 years ago, and just the install [process
was painful as hell, and not remotely intuitive.
3) I can't stand apt-get.  I still fail to understand why anyone thinks
its a good thing.  You end up with someone elses idea of how somegthing
should be compiled, and you don't have a clue of how software is built.
And i find the syntax to be really confusing.

I'm sure that others will disagree with me, but those are my reasons.
