"Cracking a Windows box to get administrator privileges is so easy people don't want to believe it."
I bet you can't do it.
And let's not forget that a lot of this is based on historical problems with Windows. And if you want to compare history, well, Linux has a rather embarassing history itself. It wasn't that long ago that most Linux distros had tons of services enabled by default with no firewalls, and the average Linux out of the box install could be rooted in about 5 to 10 minutes by someone who knew what they were doing.
