Somebody needed to step up
You'd think with all their billions, MSFT could develop the most secure OS ever built. Or at least get their security patches out sooner. It's the old tug-o-war between corporate customers, who can't have their operating environment changing every two weeks, and home users, the low-hanging fruit in the security landscape.

The bottom line is MSFT does not return good value for the money you spend with them whether it's corporate or at home.
