Gaming PC means video games, video games have historically been Windows or maybe Mac compatible. Only in the past couple years have game makers started making Linux compatibility a priority, and even then its a small percentage.

Until all systems align, Windows will continue to dominate. But things like HTML5 over Flash are helping those efforts!
