I Can Kinda Sorta Almost Agree with MS on This One  BanjoPaterson | 09/18/06
An OS should be secure, but virus scanning software in no way needs to be  DonnieBoy | 09/18/06
PLEASE go buy a CLUE  No_Ax_to_Grind | 09/18/06
Users being secure is a good thing, and we should have vibrant competition  DonnieBoy | 09/18/06
Then let them COMPETE  No_Ax_to_Grind | 09/18/06
You can not compete against a bundled product. Why would consumers pay  DonnieBoy | 09/18/06
Wouldnt the same thing happen  Suicida| | 09/18/06
Eliminating security holes in the OS is not a problem, bundling IS.  DonnieBoy | 09/18/06
And if you read the story No_Axe you would know by now  Intellihence | 09/18/06
Locking the kernel is the core of security  osreinstall | 09/18/06

More B*LLSH*T  No_Ax_to_Grind | 09/18/06
And the EU did NOT want to, they would rather that conpanies would just  DonnieBoy | 09/18/06
They sure do  BFD | 09/18/06
The EU only analyzes a very small number of products, some in great detail  DonnieBoy | 09/18/06
