Cory,

While you are right, Republicans tend to love making money, they are more complex than just that. They also don't like being told what to do by a higher power. For example, they don't like "big government" telling them what to do. In some way, Microsoft can be seen as similar to "big brother" or a controlling force. Due to this, Republicans may not like Microsoft and might seek out alternative options.

This might explain why you see some Bush/(other OS) votes.
