Registry-type information
iMacPwr -- Yes, the article mentions Windows, but only in the context of "...as you might expect given its market share..." Maybe you should have read the article a bit closer. The affidavit referenced (quite an interesting read) consistantly uses the expression "registry-type information" which might be available from your Apple's NetInfo and property list files: username, MAC & IP addrs, referrer URL. The details are on page 6, footnote 6 of the affidavit PDF. Probably, but not necessarily, Microsoft Windows.
