Subject: Re: (clug-talk) Voting Booth

Hi
Funny how meany people can not appriciate the fact, that ispite of linux
being open source (hence any flaw can be very easily found and exploited)
still has far less exploitable/exploited flaws then vintage os, despite the
source is being kept as top-secret-for-onone-eyes-only. And i dont think
vintage has as large a base as vintage would like us to think. That number
comes from sales-figures (oem vintage os). Now how long would a vintage-os
last on a hard-disk after it gets home ??
Hehe, till i find my Linux cds :-)
Cheers
Szemir

Ps: Soorry , too mutch Balantines :-]
