It doesn't matter if the first web server was on *nix, nor that it is 
still the primary platform for web development.  Linux is *not* the 
"native platform for PHP development".

In fact, I would almost bet there is more PHP *development* done on 
Windows, even though *deployment* is done on *nix.  Windows is, after 
all, the predominant system on the desktop (where most development is done).
