Wow. Really? I agree that the post is a bit pompous...however: > And for the record, these claims of 'inherent insecurity' in Windows are > simply ignorant.

And given that Microsoft has a decades long history of far worse than industry average security I think it is pretty reasonable to surmise that Windows will never be secure. > and then go on to say how easy it is to migrate, and how it's free, with only > a one off cost, and how to move off of .NET.
