With the excellent Windows OneCare package, there is
no need to install a multitude of different security software.
With the excellent free apps available, there is no need to spend
money.
Vista is the only modern OS that requires all this crap to stay secure.
Hope that changes with Windows 7.

If the table were turned and Linux had the market share that Windows
has, Linux would have all the world's hackers working to break it as
Windows does now.

That's the FUD that MS and shills like Carey would like you to believe. It just isn't true.

That's BS Alias because what the person is saying is true. Linux is not as popular as MS in the home user sector, therefore, they are not coming after the Linux platform like they do with the MS platform because it doesn't have the ignorant home user sector using the O/S as much.

Linux is no bed of roses, it has the same fallible human beings that develop program solutions for the platform and the O/S itself. They are NOT super human beings Alias, and Linux in the wrong hands does and will get attacked.
