How does one find a security issue/hole if not for testing?

Me I don't know. Yes Apple has billions in the bank as does MS
who has even morre billions in her bank. So if the best MS can
do with all her billions and resources is to do monthly patches
then considering her fewer billions and fewer resorces (including
beta testers..hehh heh he) Tjem wju ex[ect Apple to be faster in
this case when purely speaking resource wise both in raw money
and other resources like programmers to be that much better
than MS? Are you holding Apple to an unfair standard or on the
other foot are you giving MS a pass?

Let's go back to the old car things again. Back in the day GM
was number 1 and huge. Toyota came along and I was
imprressed by her quality and pricing. Toyota has grown a lot
since they first showed up on the scene but for years was always
much, much smaller than GM. Now both companies have had
their problems over the years...no one bing perfect. But over all
Toyota still shined especially in the light of her smaller size and
fewer resources. Hense I'm still impressed with Apple and not
so much with MS. When you play Basketball with a 5'2" guy vs a
7' giant and the 5'2" guys manages to score but not always win
any given game but still put up respectible points and pull some
killer moves you are impressed with the little guys efforts and
you are not all that impressed with the giants occasional
victories ie monthly patches.....:P
