Did you read the article?

August = 23
July = 18
June = 12

Before that?

May = 3
April = 5
March = 2 (2!)

Let's say these were percent LOSSES of a business. Isn't three consecutive months of double-digit losses following three stable months news? They are reporting on a trend WITHIN Microsoft. Apple, Oracle, FireFox, etc. don't even enter into it. One can hardly expect each article on patch releases to do a comprehensive comparison with all other patches from all other software providers.

Besides the title of the most recent Apple article did specify 26 fixes.

Perhaps everyone would be happy if patch articles all had the same title: "[Company X] Released a Patch." Or perhaps: "[Company X] Released a Patch, But Still Sucks Less than [Company Y], [Company Z], [Company AA], [Company BB], etc."
