Security holes get patched much faster, are of fewer number, the permissions system is consistent and reliable, there are only 30 in-the-wild viruses for Linux, and the source code is open for the world to see, allowing less bugs to go unfixed.
And that's without getting into "advanced" Linux security features or options such as iptables, netfilter, SELinux, and ClamAV, which any home Linux user won't need to fuss with at all.
