Hackers would always go for the Microsoft product over any other because
Microsoft's share of the market is so big that his (or her) return on
investment, for the hack, would be much greater. At the end of the day
that's all that matters, hacking really is a business these days, more
profitable (and less dangerous) than drug dealing in some areas.
