I disagree, with such a small number of test participants, I wouldn't think it is vital to have both of those operating systems represented, although it would be nice. With a small test, if possible, having users of a couple of different kinds of AT is better, if testing with blind users (like one using JAWS, another Window eyes etc) or low vis using a couple of screen mag applications - would be good. Ultimately when putting together a user test you will end up going with whoever shows up!
