You know, Lovey...
You happily attacked Apple after the MOAB thing, since they found as many flaws as they did. You attack Linux every time someone finds a major problem with it. Apple didn't know about most of the MOAB flaws, the Linux community usually doesn't know about their flaws. The flaws are usually patched anywhere from a couple of days to a couple of months.

Yet when you see something that points out Micro$oft ignoring a problem for a year, you make the mistake of saying they came out with the patch in a hurry.

I'm sure that you know there are other known flaws in Windows that are much older, but Microsoft is keeping with the same "if we ignore it, it won't bother us" attitude that's kept them on top of the buggy software game for a while now.

...and you say the Apple and Linux Fanboys are bad...

(PS - imagine if this was the early 1980's and you had 15 different platforms to choose from with rabid fanboys that could tell you why theirs is the superior choice...I'm guessing you'd be sitting in front of a Commodore VIC-20 or Atari 400...)
