So in your math - a single product that has 50 patches is "better" than 10 updates/31 vulnerabilities for an entire platform? In an ideal world - there would be 0 bugs but since we don't live in an ideal world then ALL platforms - including your beloved MAC - will always be rife with issues. Of course you can't ever see that or admit that - when it comes to Apple/MAC's.

So where is the Slashdot article on the following? It's as current as the Microsoft article from ZDNet! I guess as long as it puts Apple in a bad light - it gets ignored or even censored. But if it can be interpreted as Microsoft=BAD then let's up the font size and BOLD the headers!

Submission + - Apple Mac OS X update For 17 Vulnerabilities

BSDetector writes: As was widely reported on ZDNet News, eWeek, InfoWorld and Computerworld — all leading industry publications — Apple released fixes on May 24, 2007 for vulnerabilities ranging from system takeover to denial-of-service attacks. It was the fifth security update released this year. It also marked the first time this year that an operating system security update from Apple did not patch a vulnerability disclosed by the January Month of Apple Bugs project. Today's update pushed Apple's year-to-date patch total to over 100. More than one of the affected flaws were called "critical" or "dangerous". Specifics about the security issues were available on the InfoWorld site at http://www.infoworld.com/article/07/05/25/Apple-fi xes-Mac-OS-X-flaws_1.html/ or the eWeek site at http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2136578,00.as p/
