However, <em>your post's lack of emphasis</em> in the area of <strong>severe</strong> security vulnerabilities is problematic. Security people will point out that the first priority is to avoid and then fix the high security threats - the ones that will cause great harm to their users. I'm glad to see Microsoft is doing better than Apple in the area of overall number of bugs <em>and</em> that they're responding to those problems more quickly than Apple or other competitors. Great! But Apple had 1 severe problem to Microsoft's 12... <strong>And for this you declare Microsoft a winner?</strong> You make some excellent points and I’m glad that you’re pointing out to Mac users that OS/X has plenty of security problems (they need to hear this for their own good).
