Gates takes a swipe at Apple, Linux security

oki so why was msblast patch put in linux servers?! and they even said it was for security reasons!!!

lol its so secure that when I traied windows 2003 I automaticly caught tha msblast virus, shame on me to think they would patch it would already have that security problem resolved..

Hmmm... too damn funny. SuSE 9 provides far better security than any MS OS ever will. I don't, personally, own a Macintosh computer, but I've used a friend's Mac before and it was easy to use... seemed secure... after all it IS built on UNIX! I loved Safari as well... I like it even more than Firebird   :eek:  

I also am rather confused Billy Boy, as to why you say Windows is so secure "Out of the Box" - the latest version, XP, has a shitty firewall, but by  default that isn't even on!  Then there is the matter of downloading the massive service packs and 5000 critical updates .... stop bullshitting out your ass Bill!

Also, what does he mean by "secure" when there are backdoors that make it especaially easy to view whatever websites the box has visited or any installed programs on the computer?

I think by secure he means he's gotten millions of bitch customers "secured" who don't even know why it's a shitty OS to begin with.

hehe, when was the last time you heard of a macintosh virus? yep, that's right, there's pretty much no mac viruses... even classic mac os (not built on unix) was really secure. or maybe it's the fact that people using them aren't as highly strung, cos their machine actually works... - unlike windows, which tends to invoke peoples' violent tendancies for some reason (can't quite think of it at the moment)... - hence the number of viruses for windows...

Don't forget what MS means by "secure."

It means DRM.
