At a tech-focused business, probably, but think about all the programming jobs and IT departments that ultimately roll up to very non-technical people. Often what happens is a vendor becomes the chosen vendor for some expensive tool (think Microsoft, Red Hat/IBM, Oracle, whatever), and they have a solution for almost everything (theoretically). You start having to justify why you want to use a different thing to people who don't care.
Say you have 200 windows servers, and someone wants to use linux, "Why, what are you trying to solve?" Sometimes the industry forces the issue (think marketing people using Macs), but generally people are trying to streamline things they don't care about. "Use the tools that come in this box we buy from this vendor who we pay all our bills too, everything else is a weird liability I have to worry about hiring for and keeping track of."
The end result tends to be pretty mediocre though.
