Re: Not as bad as before

Look, there are vulnerabilities in ever OS. People freaking out about one vulnerability is retarded.

If it were just one vulnerability and not six then perhaps. ^

When you steal from OS X, steal the whole thing including it's security, not just tidbits and ideas.

Is OS X really that much more secure?? Or is it the fact that no one really cares about OS X? Windows is on more machines.

Take your Mac fanboy attitude elsewhere.

Mac practices security through obscurity. Nothing less, nothing more.

BZZZT ! Wrong. Please at least know what you are talking about before posting. Mac OS X is a Unix-like OS and there is nothing obscure about it.

Uh, lets not forget where OS X came from Mac lovers. Mac didn't' do shit for security, they inherited a good model from BSD.

Microsoft may have bought ideas but for the most part their work is theirs and theirs alone. Given that they rule the enterprise and consumer market even with several variants of Linux, BSDs and Macs around, give them some credit.

The biggest thing Microsoft has going for them, as with most big (and more or less success full) is business practices. They've been bullies at times but that's what you get when your king of the hill.

I'm sorry but Bill Gates isn't a cult leader like Jobs. Jobs is a nutcase.
