Hello All,
I thought I'd share this with the group. The other day I was reading
"Information Week" (August 2, 2004 issue pg. 19) and I saw a Microsoft
ad for what they did for Equifax and how Microsoft software was
cheaper than Linux. Here's the link:
http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/facts/default.asp

One of the articles was about how "Windows users have fewer
vulnerabilities" compared to Linux. Is this another case of how Microsoft
can make statistics say whatever they want? I seem to remember a fiasco a
few years ago about the statistics related to IE or something along that
line. Anyway, I thought I'd pass it along.

David John
