I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, and assume that Microsoft's new code is rock solid.

Now, what about the other 80% they ported from XP and beyond? OS X may be coded in a more risky manner, but that could be as simple as every component not performing security checks if you're logged in as an admin/root. (making every component vulnerable)

I honestly don't think you can get anything out of articles like this. It's just one guy...read between the lines, and he isn't even saying anything worthwhile about security.

Well, except that, his prized $10,000 exploit is a quicktime exploit, and it affects all browsers - even ones under Windows. I like how the Inq missed that minor detail.

YES!!!!


I just showed this article to my frothing at the mouth apple fanboy coworker and he literally turned bright red! Just like this emoticon:

Thanks OP, you just made my whole week.

P.S. I don't care about the accuracy of the article it still was 100% effcective for taking a jab against apple and ticking off my fanboy coworker, and that is all that matters to me.




Also, I am really getting tired of this Vista bashfest. I am not a fan of MS, I just happen to use their OS because it suits me. Everyone is crying like a bunch of babies that their XP programs won't work(well, DUH!), that drivers won't work(it just came out for god's sake!), and that they don't have the mental capacity to learn a new OS. Shut up and deal with it, or don't buy it. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up. Every OS has had a rocky start to some degree... OSX did, and so did XP... everyone hated XP when it was first released and now they seem to love it because they have a new OS to brainlessly bash.
