Beats the heck out of me - you make a good point. Windows Systems are certainly more popular targets for Malware than ArchLinux/OpenBSD. I absolutely agree with you that if just want to not deal with that (and still actually use the Internet) - getting off the major platforms is a pretty straightforward play.

But - if you want to use all the Tier 1 Commercial software (or, in the cases of things like garageband, free software ) - kind of hard not to have a Windows or Mac.
