Needed a flashback to the 90s tonight, thank you. Our 3k+ Windows VMs sitting in a datacenter would tend to disagree.

There are a lot of good answers about segregation, diligence and security in this thread. Knee jerk "windows!!!!" replies aren't good at all.

It's not just "windows", it's the kind of people who are on the other end of it. If your attack relies on someone downloading "funny toolbar" and saying "yes" to the wrong thing, then at least some of the world wide droves of Karens will let it in.

Hence ... targeting Windows.
