Mac versus Windows hacks? - josntme - 12-19-2007 What do you make of this? http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=758 Re: Mac versus Windows hacks? - JoeH - 12-19-2007 Don't know the author or the "impartial" company Secunia, but 234 minor flaws listed as "highly critical"? Most are actually in applications, not the OS. Like to see a similar count for Windows plus applications. Someone is reaching far up his posterior to pull that blog entry off. Re: Mac versus Windows hacks? - jdc - 12-19-2007 when you need more hits, add "mac" or "apple" to your title Re: Mac versus Windows hacks? - Ted King - 12-19-2007 The author of the article does exactly what the people he cites, Secunia, say should not be done with their statistics: http://secunia.com/product/96/?task=statistics "PLEASE NOTE: The statistics provided should NOT be used to compare the overall security of products against one another."
