Well pal, I guess you didn't read this from the above link:

Vista's most-obvious fatal flaw is its baked-in DRM (what is DRM doing
in a "business" OS anyway?), which can be turned against it as a
weapon. What's to keep a Trojan or other malware from simply
generating spurious tilt bits at random intervals to cause random
resets-- or reboots-- or locking out system hardware altogether?

As has been pointed out in the past, the problem with DRM is simple.
Sure, the content is in a "locked box"-- but the provider HAS to
provide a key to open it, and sooner-or-later, somebody is going to
make a copy of that key-- and in the meantime, dealing with the locks
is a needless hassle. Not only that, the DRM keeps WinVista churning.
No wonder laptops have seriously-reduced battery live vis-a-vis WinXP!

and this one:

Referring to the chart, those are the ones that Microsoft KNOWS about
but may or may not fix, and in their own good time. With that metric
on the graph I suspect that the VISTA column will blow off the top of
the chart.

Comparing vulns between an OS that keeps MOST of theirs secret and
FOSS distros which make public ALL of their vulns is a disjoint from
the beginning. And, Jeff, unless you have access to Microsoft's
internal bug database your graph represent ONLY the ones Microsoft is
willing to tell the world about. Given their past behavior they are
NOT trustworthy.

However, I understand where you are coming from. IF you told the truth
you'd have to look for another job.

See fool, even when you cite some reference you still manage to make
an ass of yourself. Better luck next time.

I posted a like to Windows Vista 6 month vulnerability report by Jeff Jones
and like the typical school yard bully you go off about someone replying.
You are just crazy.

What's even more interesting and fatal to your argument is your admitted
use of Vista Business as mainly for video editing.
What is that all about based on your above comment? Are you that dumb
and numb...I guess so.

In your own stupid fukkin words..."See fool, even when you cite some
reference you still manage to make an ass of yourself. Better luck next
time.

My Gawd, do you ever, ever read your own hypocritical horsesh*t?
Grow up or just STFU!!!

You fuffking moron, I didn't even write what you attribute to me, you
laughable always clueless lummox. You see Frankie Numbnuts, THIS is
why everyone laughs at the sh*t you post. You don't even know who said
what, you just blindly rant and rave for no reason other than to
simply rant and rave, which surely suggests you are quite insane.

So now you're saying you don't use Vista business as a video editor...is
that correct?
If that's true then why have you been lying all this time?
You see adam georgie-boy dumbnutts...lying like you do is why everyone
in this ng have been kicking your stupid big mouth fat a*s for months.

Take your dog's penis out of your mouth before you post Frank and just
maybe you can focus on what your writing.

You just keep proving you are nothing but a delusional asswipe.
