Now now Linux and OS X (at least anything above what it ships with) will let you do something. You just have to RTFM, follow instructions very carefully and not screw up otherwise you might end up breaking something. So MS lets you find and install things easily some of which might be malware which might do something to screw things up. Linux/OS X (again beyond the trivial webbrowser and such) require YOU to be very careful that YOU don't screw things up. The Windows problem can be largely mitigated by a strong AV and actually paying attention to UAC prompts, the linux one requires more skill (and interest) than the average user possesses. I'd rather give someone a PC and install a good AV application and let them go to town then have them either not be able to figure out how to get something to work and use a limited system (by their lack of skill) or hound me and any IT savvy people they can find to spend an hour or two of their time RTFM'ing for them to get it to work.
