 I'm starting to think Steve Jobs needs to start calling himself Steve
 Jones.  

For a second there, my mind inserted Tom's name instead of Steve's.

Tom as a Sex Pistol?  Heh.  Tommy Rotten? [giggle]

Unfortunate, yes, but not-as was reported in the immediate aftermath of the
presentation-evidence that Vista's security is useless, nor does this work
constitute a major security issue. And it's not game over, either.
Sensationalism sells, and there's no news like bad news, but
sometimes-particularly when covering security issues-it would be nice to see
accuracy and level-headedness instead.

This is not a technical article. It is an op ed by a WFB trying to spin 
the issue in MS's favor. It is not worth the time to read. A waste.

Is that the best you got?

You must not be familiar with Peter B over at Ars.  He recently recanted his
love for Windows and documented his turn to the dark side in loving detail.

I imagine Avie himself could have written this article and it wouldn't
matter to the apple elite corps. Peter is obviously not a true believer.
I'm starting to think Steve Jobs needs to start calling himself Steve
Jones.  More in line with the faithful.

A WFB, right. It's pretty apparent that you have no idea who Bright is.
