Windows 7 is a product of Microsoft. It was released in 2009.Windows 7 is a very beautiful, customizable, fast and the best product of Microsoft (I think). Windows 7 is made for desktops and mobiles. Windows 7 phone was the first release of Microsoft's mobile phone operating system.
Ubuntu 14.04 code name (Trusty Tahr) is a Linux distro (based on debian), product of Canonical. It was released on 17 April, 2014. A new version of Ubuntu releases after every 6 months. It is an LTS (long term support) release which means that it will support 5 years of official updates.Its default desktop environment is Unity. Unity welcomes new users. It is very easy to use.Unity was designed for Mobiles, Desktops and Tablets. Canonical has announced that after the final release of Unity 8, Users can use one app across all the devices (phones,tablets and desktops). Its really amazing.

The first thing we notice about a OS is that "How much time it takes to boot up".
Ubuntu 14.04:
                       22.5 Seconds

Can any one hack Ubuntu Linux?

Technically yes, but it's difficult to do. Also remember that most Linux computers that are hacked are servers. Assuming you have a desktop, you should be very secure. Because your computer isn't going to be controlled remotely, it by default denies incoming connections like SSH. This means that no one, even if they know your password, can remotely control your computer. So you are relatively safe from online attacks. Note that it is possible for a script on a website to break out of your browser's sandbox, use a privilege escalation exploit, gain root access, and plant a rootkit, (basically pwn you completely), but this is VERY difficult and the average exploit for Linux is patched in two hours (or that's what I heard at least), so it'd take a really, really excellent hacker to do that, and a hacker at that level wouldn't be interested in your computer.

The other way a hacker could get into your computer is through malicious code that they trick you into downloading (aka malware). Linux is very safe from malware and hackers for many reasons:

1) All programs are by default not run as root, which means they can't change system files. You'd have to be a fool to run all your programs as root. ONLY run a program as root if you trust that it won't stab you in the back...
