Microsoft Sends Windows to the Emergency Room

,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft identifies 16 affected Windows versions, including service packs. 
| Reminder: Microsoft only lists service packs that are currently supported. 
| So, the number of actually affected Windows versions is much larger. That 
| said, enterprises should be running newer, or the newest, supported service 
| packs anyway.

Knowing what they know, Microsoft should use GNU/Linux on the desktops
internally (not just in routers and devices).
