Windows Security: is Microsoft innocent?
,----[ Quote ]
| Until it can stand tall and proclaim it is
| doing just that, and perhaps more
| importantly the end user can believe as
| much, in the same way that they believe
| Apple and the various flavours of Linux, I
| am afraid that I cannot actually think of a
| single reason why I shouldn't blame
| Microsoft until the cows come home.
|
| Guilty as charged, m'lud.

| Between the patching, the re-re-reboots,
| the war against malware, and disasters like
| this one, wouldnât the world be much
| further ahead to use GNU/Linux instead? If
| GNU/Linux lacks features that users of IT
| feel is important, they could spend their
| money on improving GNU/Linux instead of
| keeping that other OS alive, sometimes. All
| these billions could be put to better use.
