said by jsouth :So what? All that proves is that there is more windows machines out there. Consumer and business desktops are about 90% Windows, something like 7% Macintosh, and most of the rest Linux. Internet-facing servers are about 70% Unix or Linux and are much better for sending spam or viruses or other malware.
The compromises on Windows are much higher than in proportion to its share in every one of those segements (servers, business desktops, consumer desktops). It's just easier to hack, harder to secure and tends to be maintained by less competent administrators. |
