  The only point I was making (and the one you're determined to
ignore, it appears): Microsoft routinely throws their weight around to
tell the rest of the industry to change to Microsoft's new way of
doing things.  Microsoft elected not to do that with security.

  The question was asked (paraphrased): "Why did it take Microsoft so
long to do anything about security?"  I answered that question.  No
less, no more.  You're the one who keeps trying to drag the question
off into the weeds.

  Of course, an equally valid question would be, "Why did it take
Apple so long to do anything about security?"  But that wasn't the
question I was addressing.

  That I would agree with.
