mozek, You're full of it mozek. You need to go back to the beginning of the discussion and understand what has been the topic from the beginning. You are the one who is trying to change the subject and you know it. The topic began with M$FT's crummy O/S which lacks security. The topic continued with a comparison with thin clients. That's the topic I am discussing, mozek. Period. If you want to discuss MAC O/S security, do it with someone else. In fact, the only reason any other O/S came up in the discussion was because of the article I quoted, which, as I have already stated was NOT challenged by your own head of security @M$FT. You're caught in the corner on this one, why not just admit it? You know better.

I think it's really sweet that you're sticking up for your employer, Mike, but you really should try to use something besides ad hominem arguments. The comparison is between Windows desktops (hereinafter the "old paradigm") and thin clients fed by Unix servers (hereinafter the "new paradigm"). If you want to introduce the concept of thin clients fed by Win2000 servers, that might be interesting, but I think it will be a departure from your bosses' "vision." JMHO.
