i didn't know that gimp is limited to 8 bit, that's kind of a drawback for me  :-\.

Not all of gimp is limited to 8 bit, just TIFs.  You can still use PNGs in full 16 bit.  If you're using UFRAW for the NEF conversion and doing a lot of files, you can just run it in batch mode through the cli.  It can be pretty flexible.  Pair that with script-fu for gimp and the pfs tools for HDR and you can start automating a lot of your workflow.

Like its already been said, its good to have choices.

Best of luck, and feel free to ask more.   :)

Not to go against the grain, but I've been running Linux ( Ubuntu ) at home for years.  Don't even own a Windows license.  I've recently started the photography side of things and although it took some learning, it seems to be working.  I've never used Photoshop in a serious manner, so Gimp does the trick.  Gimp does lack in some areas such as not supporting 16 bit TIFF, but all in all, I'm happy with it.  I use UFRAW and Rawtherapee to work with the NEFs.
