A quote from the article:
' Open source supporters have long accused Microsoft of security flaws but
Microsoft counters that. "Microsoft also has a record of patching up
vulnerabilities in one-third of the time compared to Linux. You need to pay
to get security updates in Linux whereas in Windows its free," Mr
Balakrishnan said. '
MS at its best.
