JC Jaros: QUESTION: how do tell an OS is secure unless you
have the source code for the OS. Indeed, MSFT probably has a
few backdoors in old NT that only they know about (JMHO).
There is simply no way security can be assured unless one has
source code.

Well, I'm sure if Microsoft SAYS it's secure and compliant, it's secure and compliant, right? They ARE the "source". I mean, I'm sure they wouldn't deliberately mislead people. :)

I have a real sense that the chickens are all finally coming home to roost in Redmond.
