Fine Cheryl, So why don't you let your cronies beat up on MSFT ? Why do you need the crutches of the injustice dept ?

Cheryl, You, ms. are the one who is wrong. First of all, I do not know where you are getting your statistics or what facts you have to back them, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that the more popular a platform is, the more it will be targeted by developers seeking maximum reach whether with apps or viruses. Furthermore, if you knew anything about operating systems, you would realize that your characterization of NT vs. Unix security is completely fallacious. In fact, they are more alike in their security models and level of security than they are different. BTW, I do not consider that a compliment to NT. It's simply a factual statement. A fair comparison with client operating systems would be between MacOS and Win9x, and MacOS is no shining star. You've made some good points in the past, but your insult-laden, Sun-scripted marketing drivel doesn't add value. Mike
