Oh but wait: There is something to see here DENIAL (and a mighty fine one at that). And I know this will crush the 7EEtiSt OSX status you appear to carry but guess what OSX does have and will have security vulnerabilities. My guess is you can?t stand the thought that someone is saying something other than a shining review of your favorite OS. That is a very childish and quite frankly a stupid position to take. It?s a good thing that someone with a little more common sense saw fit to make a patch and make it public. It?s a shame some can?t see the public benefit in that.; Posted by: prong@...
