I know one can use Windows without getting hacked. But it is not even up for debate that it is more vulnerable by far than *nix. But using one as a workstation is one thing. I wouldn't do that. But putting it on the open Internet is a nightmare few who manage servers for a living would do if they started a new system up today.
That's not to mention the cost and how much of a resource hog a Windows server is compared to a comparable *nix system.
These companies use Windows because they have always used Windows and they just paid the price for that mistake.
For sure it is vulnerable. What isnt now days? You thinking linux cant be hacked....haha It just takes one person experienced with it to hack you. Windows is just easier to hack because more people use it.
