Hilarious
I just thought this really said it all.
So this shows that Apple had more than 5 times the number of flaws per month than Windows XP and Vista in 2007, and most of these flaws are serious. Clearly this goes against conventional wisdom because the numbers show just the opposite and it isn’t even close.
Also noteworthy is that while Windows Vista shows fewer flaws than Windows XP and has more mitigating factors against exploitation, the addition of Windows Defender and Sidebar added 4 highly critical flaws to Vista that weren’t present in Windows XP. Sidebar accounted for three of those additional vulnerabilities and it’s something I am glad I don’t use. The lone Defender critical vulnerability that was supposed to defend Windows Vista was ironically the first critical vulnerability for Windows Vista.
Rest of the story can be seen here.

SLGrieb already posted this but in the security forum... I am leaving both up since they will attract two different audiences.

Of course you are street! I'm just not sure I'm altogether comfortable with the idea that you may be more attracted to Ferrit's thread than mine. Not sure whether to laugh, or cry. OK. LOL
