Counting vulnerabilities? What they heck does that matter? And in which dimension did XP have only 5? This is marketing garbage at its worst. More vulnerabilities reported could mean that it is more secure. Or the developers are more honest (open source will always have more, as they all get reported.) Secunia should know better. If your business is about patching you ought to have enough sense to smell the stink from your own PR nonsense. cw On 04/01/15 21:56, Jeffrey Walton wrote: > Its interesting the Windows OSes are lowest on the list (including > OS X and Linux).
