The only reason webpages get displayed improperly on other OS's is because of Internet Exploder. About 80% - 90% of websites are optimized to look well in Internet Exploder, they don't care about Safari, Mozilla, Konquerer. Netscape etc. I use SUSE Linux often and it was not hard to learn. HTML Displays just fine in Mozilla Firefox for me almost all the time, now and then there's a problem, one time this guy wanted me to look at his nav bar that he made with flash, and so I did and . . .
Me: "WTF is with the blue background"
Him: "What blue background, there's no blue background"
Me: "Yeah, there is, let me send you a screen shot"
Him: "Ok. . . WTF You edited the image you f*ing retard, you F*cking liar"
Me: "No I didn't, what internet browser are you using?"
Him: "What's an internet browser?"
Me: "Internet Exploder, Mozilla, Netscape etc . . .
Him: "Internet Explorer"
Me: "Well, that's the problem, you are using internet explorer, try another browser. Go to http://www.mozilla.org and download FireBird"
Him: "WTF, you idiot, you trying to make me download a virus, you f*cking retard, all my friends say it looks just fine"
Me: "All your friends use Internet Exploder"
Him: "So? It looks fine for all of them, that means your lying"

And that's when I blocked the idiot. . . . There shouldn't be a problem with creating HTML pages either, unless your wanting something like front page, or dreamweaver where you don't have to code it yourself. Besides Linux and Mac's are much much more secure compared to Windows. Linux is used most of the time for webserver due to It's reliability, security, almost never needs rebooted, (I have only had to reboot my server once in the past 6 months)
