Windows Vista Service Pack 2 is the absolute apex in security when it comes down to operating systems, Kevin Turner, chief operating officer for Microsoft, has indicated at the Midmarket CIO Summit earlier this week. Turner has had no problems applauding Vista SP2's superiority over rivals open source Linux and Apple's Mac OS X Leopard, although he has failed to offer any details related to the OS security-measuring content besides his perspective. At the same time, the Redmond company's COO has indicated that Windows 7, the software giant's next iteration of Windows will also be more secure than Linux and Leopard.
This comes as a major surprise to me, and it also goes against my last post claiming Mac and current Linux flavours to be most secure...
Tell me what are the people at MS thinking? Why will they not simply say that our Windows 7 will not have common security lapses. Yes, agreed, your service packs do enhance security, but comparing with another OS that works on a separate platform! This is insanity!
In any case, I refuse to agree with their claims, according to me, they either tested their Windows OS against some age-old version of Linux, or against a Linux system set to administrator("root" account in technical language) without a firewall.
Bloody cheats at Redmond!!
this is seriously good !
