> close to 5 to 1 more Linux servers hacked than Windows
Correct me if I'm wrong, but according to that same page you reference, the number of Linux servers was also about 5 times the number of Windows servers. Meaning they're about equally attacked percentage-wise.

Real slanted.
BTW, Microsoft is cozying up to Linux bigtime now. I'd say your enthusiasm for boosting Steve "Linux is a cancer" Ballmer ought to slack off, since he's obviously gone over to the Dark Side...
Those numbers are the total number of Linux servers hacked, verses Windows servers hacked, being roughly a 5 to 1 ratio (~1.1 million to ~200k), from the internet at large. The stats for server O/S footprint on the internet at large aren't of interest of the defacement archive, and are hard to measure as Apache vs IIS would be the expected comparative, but Apache runs on Windows and other versions of Unix as well.
Netcraft does the most respected job of tracking webserver O/S type, and does show Apache with a larger number of sites than IIS, but again that includes some Windows and most other versions of *NIX, and it's still no where near a 5 to 1 ratio verses IIS as we see in Linux defacements. More like 2 to 1:
