A lot of standard system services, NTP, DHCP, FTP, DNS, mail, etc.
everything you can think of that needs to be fast and efficient.
otherwise --
Routers & switches (Cisco IOS is a lightweight unix shell)
VM hypervisor software (vmware runs on striped down RHEL)
90% of smartphones
tons of embedded software
What doesn't run on linux? MS Office, but I think that's it.
Linux is all about the shell. it's a massive ocean of tools and commands for the shell. Ubuntu is the Windows wanna be, but even that is really all about the shell. If you're interested in web technologies or bored with what Windows has to offer, take the plunge. Initially it's a steep learning curve, but once you pick a bit of it up, it becomes very straight forward.
