sounds like you’re consumer type of user.

i dabble in embedded development and more often than not oem release drivers and tool chain for Linux and Windows, and those drivers are too low level to be emulated properly if at all.

It depends on the domain. Most scientific software, on the other hand, works out of the box on Linux and Mac, and if you want to get it to build and run on Windows, well, you're most likely going to be the first one so good luck if there are any issues as the authors won't bother with non-unixy compatibility.
