This underscores a point, though. Everytime you tell a Windows person that Linux is far more secure, the mantra is "yeah, that's because hackers like linux so they don't attack it as much". So we can't have it both ways. If, in fact, Linux is attacked (successful or not) with the same frequency as windows (and I would assume this is the case), then in fact it goes to show all the more that linux is much more secure. Of course, we're using "linux" in the broadest sense possible here, probably not just to mean "linux-based operating systems" but in face "open source operating systems".
