You maybe right, but I never underestimate stupidity.
I know that is harsh, but the fact is I am constantly amased at some folks. You don't know how many times I've taken a "help desk call" only to tell people to click on "Help" and read what it says.

But you may be right in that if MS locks the machine down tightly, they will be forced to learn at least a minimal amount about security and that is a very good thing...
