MS is better at fixing bugs....

Wasn't this the company that also advertised that their software would make hackers extinct?

jasonlane:
The Advertising Standards Commission made them pull that Ad here in the UK, becuse is was untruthful and misleading.

mobrien_12:
I'm also reminded of the fact that it wasn't too long ago that MS was blaming security problems on the people who found and reported them without giving MS 3 months to fix them.  

Now suddenly they are the best at fixing bugs.

bigsleep:
Claims by Microsoft advocates:
"People hate M$ because they have so much money."
"All software has bugs."
"Most viruses are written for M$ because it is so popular."

With all that money they can't seem to make their products bug-free and secure, yet open-source developers with little or no money are able to discover and patch bugs in their spare time.

I've never even heard of a *nix or Mac virus, do they even exist? (virus being a self-replicating program).
