I don't speak for all hackers but I prefer Linux for four reasons:
1. Good driver support for my laptop
2. Open source - I have learned from others code
3. It is more secure then Microsoft's OS
4. All the tools I need/want are included (perl, gcc, nmap, nessus, etc.)
FYI: I run Gentoo Linux http://www.gentoo.org
