It was long time ago I started to feel constraints of Windows as web development environment.So, very logical step was to move to something more developer friendly than user (read dummy) friendly.

It is true that Drupal was not my first decision when it comes to blogging platforms. Wordpress was. But, after thinking about reciprocity that tells "More automation - less flexibility" I decided to get to the more hard way.
