complain only because my DBAs do not come from a Windows background.

Let me know
There may be an impedance mismatch if you have RAC for uptime and
periodically reboot Windows. (this would be another aspect of what
Dan said about Windows SA's). You might google for a classic paper
entitled "you probably don't need RAC" (except the licensing/cost
issues are different now).

Just a pair of reasons:

1)Linux is cheeper than Win2003 ent edition
2) If you use unbreakable enterprise linux (a red hat edition, from oracle),
troubleshooting, ecc. should be easy for support.
