If you use windows on your firewall machine that maybe so.
While linux isn't bulletproof, i'd take it over windows any day.
There are only a few reasons I even have windows on any of my machines:
1) MOH-AA
2) Lightwave
3) DVDs
If there were ports of MOH-AA and Lightwave for Linux, along with a good DVD player (haven't tried ogle yet but will soon) I will be rid of windows forever.

No kiddie porn on any of my machines mister!
Besides, it doesn't matter if your machine runs one of the most popular web sites on the net or you just use it for MP games, people will try to hack into it for no other reason that it is there.
