Hardly. I have more than my fair share of customers that:

1. Develop on windows (in php)
2. Only use winscp
3. Couldn't configure, install or load linux or postgresql if they had a
gun to their head.

Better yet, these "users" are very profitable in their respective fields
and are actually half way decent php programmers (snickers aside).

You will also find that in many environments, especially enterprise
environments a pervasive string of Java developers who known "nothing"
of the database except for what Hibernate tells them.

I quote, "You mean there is tuning that has to be done beyond java?"
