Linux Patching is Better than OS X and Windows Patching

| Recent vulnerabilities in Adobe Macromedia Flash and Mozilla Firefox that
| can affect multiple operating systems highlight a weakness in the Mac and
| Windows auto-update process because they're primarily focused on
| patching Apple and Microsoft specific issues. A notification system
| on third party vulnerabilities would be better than nothing. Most
| modern Linux distributions on the other hand like Redhat and SuSE have
| automatic update mechanisms that patch across the entire spectrum of
| software since Linux by its very nature is made up of a collection of
| applications from different sources.
