Okay, so it is buzzword compliant. But how does it work in the real
world? You don't know and I don't know. All I have to go on is the
company's past track record of broken promises about security. All
you have to go on is a list of buzzwords from their PR department and
some limited personal testing. So all this proves is that your
gullibility score is much higher than mine.

This is just advertising for a operating system that is still in
beta. You have no way to know that it is true. Spouting such
marketing blather reduces your credibility to zero.
Yeah, except...no. XP doesn't have kernel patch protection, service
hardening, data execution prevention, address space layout
randomization,
mandatory integrity levels, UAC, BitLocker, AppLocker, or
DirectAccess.
