tic, you should be thanking George
Wow. Guess you've given up all hope on getting quality products from MS. Oh well.

Hmm, not exactly sure how you came to that conclusion based on what I wrote but you do tend to read into things whatever it is you want to see. Oh well.

I guess we just demand more. We're not resigned to accepting mediocrity

Come now tic, I wouldn't call OSX mediocre!!! I think the iPod is an exceptional product too. Apple screwed up with this one patch, big deal. All OS companies screw up every once in a while, don't be so hard on Apple.

On to the point of the subject for this post: you should be thanking all the people you claim to be so rabidly anti-Mac. If, as you seem to fear, they are somehow hurting Mac sales, they are actually protecting you from any possibility that all of OSX's zero-day, proof-of-concept vulnerabilities actually get turned into "in the wild exploits". Really tic, you should also be shouting as loud as you can: OSX SUCKS! IT IS DANGEROUS! STAY AWAY!. That way you and Laff can still find comfort in your "could'a should'a would'a been an exploit but it wasn't!!" defense. happy
