Note that most of iOS's improved security posture is due to its design as a
launcher of apps from a tightly controlled source that tightly control the user
experience.  It's pretty damned easy to harden Windows as well, if you're going
to hobble it into being a canned app launcher.

Of course, that will piss off everybody who's using Windows as a base for
a generalized computing environment rather than an app-launching kiosk,
