I have never had a *NIX server under my charge hacked, I have had several Windows machines (those directly connected to the internet) hacked. No, I am not a *NIX worshiper either, I happen to have 7 MS certs. With that said, each OS has stregnths and weaknesses, MS tends to function better as a user facing interface to windows desktop infrastructure, but I avoid it like the plague for public facing infrastructure.
