Do the machines interact, let's say, run a plugin on Windows and use it in
Ardour on Linux via ADAT or something?

Heh, my bad. Just to clear this up, I gave
Ableton as an example as I
thought it was windows only. :/
But surely if people are so 'I don't really want to learn a totally
different app but I want it running on this OS without any bugs or kinks
etc', then why would they even be dipping their toes into a different OS
expecting sh*t to work as if it were windows and then go bawwwing back to
windows?

In my case I don't bring any of this up anymore because I just stick
with whatever native OS an app is developed for. I have multiple
machines, Linux for Ardour mainly along with lots of plugins, but
Windows XP machines for GSt and Acid Pro. All the machines are linked
with ADAT optical and it's pretty much a non-issue. I've collected 4
machines over the years as I've upgraded to newer hardware. However
these old machines are still as good and as fast as they ever were so
GSt runs on it's own machine, Acid Pro on another. I only turn them on
when I need them.
