I see both points, and you can't argue with either...
Milly says MS is trying harder to secure it's products. That's fine.
Yet, Squawkbox says they can't wait, so be it.
No problem, and I can't blame someone for saying that.
I can get by with MS for now, along with the other OS's I run. However, I too would like to go without MS Windows and IE. I can't do that fully right now, and I will have to wait for patches to make the systems more secure.
MS had better hurry up though. I think that it's not that I have to wait for patches, it's that there are so many patches in the first place that drives people nuts. But if you can wait for them, okay.
