There are two opposing philosophies regarding security. The MS philosophy is security through obfuscation and secrecy. We have seen and continue to see how well that works, although MS has gotten better about fixing exploits when they're discovered. The open source philosophy is security through peer review. This does of course mean attackers can look for vulnerabilities in the source, but in practice it has been the case that vulnerabilities are discovered and fixed before attackers have a chance to exploit them.
Yes, there is a tradeoff between security and usability. MS almost always chooses the latter over the former. And there are certain aspects of Windows that are simply unacceptable from a security standpoint. For example an unprivileged user can modify system executable code; that's simply not allowed in most Linux distributions.
