If you accept/trust the advice on this list, why do you cling to your
ill-founded assertion in the face of all the evidence to the contrary?

And what, exactly, made Windows 2000 Workstation more of a "server" O/S?

Funny, it was my user OS since pre-beta.
Are you speaking of the NT “family”, or strictly the versions of the
same codebase named “NT”?

True… but NT was not a “user” operating system. J

This is only one, tiny, aspect of implementing a security model (reading
Windows Internals by Russinovich/Solomon is highly recommended).
That said, Windows NT has had the same model since the first released
version (v3.1 back in 1993)

Basically, that users are not admins and that everything runs in
“userspace” unless specifically run as an admin, including installation of
software.

Not to start a flame war or anything, but I was under the impression
that Mac OS/X was significantly *more* secure than a comparable Windows
machine, due to the *nix security model? Asking for information here, trying
to learn, not trying to start a Mac Vs. Windows thread (there are enough of
those, that I don’t need to start one! <G>)
