Welcome to IWETHEY!

New That was predicted.
Only those who were willingly deceiving themselves claimed that Bush wouldn't interfer.

As for the "analysis" of "vulnerabilities".......

Pure marketing bullshit.

The funny part is that no TWO of these "analysts" can even come up with the same number of vulnerabilities.

If they can't START with verifiable NUMBERS......

Real world usage indicates that Open Source systems are LESS vulnerable than Windows. Check your web logs for scans from Code Red. Still.

Now, whether this is because:

#1. The Open Source software has fewer vulnerabilities.
#2. The vulnerabilites are less damaging in Open Source.
#3. The Open Source software's DEFAULT installation is more secure.
#4. The Open Source admins are better at admin'ing.
#5. Something I haven't thought of yet.
#6. A combination of some or all of the above........

The US is in decline. Economically, politically, and so forth.
New #5
The crackers that target open source systems tend to be actual crackers as opposed to script kiddies, and tend to not use their resources in obvious ways.

IMO, of course.

The feeling is there, but you have a long way to go to CRC's level.
