That article has this quote: "aggregated distributions of the Linux operating system suffered 96 vulnerabilities while Windows NT/2000 suffered only 42". If you could buy Windows with thousands of 3rd party apps, like the Linux distributions they studied, you'd see a LOT more "Windows vulnerabilities" than the strictly Microsoft ones they counted. I really do wish the 'expert' analysts out there would grow a brain and do true scientific studies on occasion. But I agree with you, Cutter, this discussion doesn't really belong here. :) I can't resist sometimes, but I need to try harder. And, I don't try to say that Linux is more secure than Windows anymore because there have been plenty of vulnerabilities in both products. As long as humans are making the software we use, there will always be vulnerabilities. ------------ This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
