You are soooo wrong!

They all love Linux. "They" in this case are Hollywood based WB, 
Technicolor and LA Center Studios. Probably others too. Their 
Datacenters runs almost exclusively on it. While it's true that actual 
editing work happens predominantly on Win/AVID, there is some customized 
HW/SW around (e.g. for color-correction) that is Linux-based and the 
amount of it is rising quickly due to fact that it can be customized, 
adapted and maintained much more easily than Win or OSX. None of it is 
free-software, though.
