Another 25?
Wow, how come people are finding so many holes in OS X? Has anything changed? There never used to be so many security vulnerabilities in OS X or could it simply be that they've always been there and they've simply never been reported before?

Either way, it sure puts that whole "OS X is safer" thing into perspective for me. I don't mind paying more for a superior product (which is why I bought the Archos and not the iPod and will buy the HTC Touch Diamond and not the iPhone) but there is no rational reason to pay more for something with so many bugs in it!
