Well! the author is somewhat right. Because a virus written to exploit M$ boxes will make them choke the network. Secondly, If a Linux box is running an application on the "target" port it will have to take the massive DOS of the exploited M$ machines on the network. Even though the worm/virus might not be able to exploit the *nix boxes it will take them down anyways. PS: I'v seen it happen.
