Seriously, who codes in Linux and what platforms, IDEs, etc do they
use? What language?
I code in C#, have done Windows Forms, WPF, Silverlight, ADO.NET,
ASP.NET and some VB and Access dB programming, though I prefer
ADO.NET. Getting into WCF now (SOAP) web services using REST as
well. All of course under the award winning Visual Studio IDE. I'm
using VS 2008 but might upgrade to VS 2010.
Seriously, why would ANYBODY code in Linux? Why? You can port
Silverlight to Linux. I think in theory ASP.NET is platform neutral
as well.
And what language would you use in Linux? C? C++? Why? And for
server side, PHP? Why? Why would you do that? I am at a loss.
Why would anybody use an IDE that does not have the bells and whistles
of Visual Studio, like Intellisense? What's the point of not having a
decent IDE?
The only thing I can think of is if you want to code ONLY for Linux
users, not for the 99%% that doesn't use Linux OS and the over 90%% that
uses Windows OS. But again, you can port (I think) almost anything
done in Visual Studio to Linux.

If you don't want to purchase Windows or a whole new computer from Apple
with Mac OS X, Linux would be a good choice.

If you stick with cross-platform libraries, avoid Win32 and .NET, use
standard C/C++, in practise it works pretty well.
You really have to be on guard against letting VS wizards generate your code,
though.

Who cares about what one would do on the Linux platform programming
wise? Heck you got so called programmers in COLA that actually program
on the MS platform by day and bash it by night lurking in COLA.
They talk about MS and .NET in general like the dogs that they are
about. And yet none of them can get a job collecting a paycheck
programming on Linux -- none of them.

Also, if you ever want to develop commercial applications, you must
purchase Visual Studio. A hobbyist developer wanting to try to earn some
money with his creations may not want to pay €999+ for it before he's
even making any money.

Anything you develop on a windows visual language is throwaway code. Use it and
toss it. Don't ever expect any of it to run anywhere else, even on a future
version of your current visual language.
