    Stupid losers

    If they had any brains they would be using PowerMacs as servers due to their being harder to hack into.
    Why is Apple also so dumb as to not capitalize on such a thing and tout it at the top of their lungs that their computers are much better security wise?

    Intel SUX

    Too bad Apple's stock drops along with all other techs... And maybe someday people will wise up and realize Microsoft's products are completely insecure. Most people are morons--the rest of us use Macs. :-)

    security

    I read recently somewhere (here?) that BSD (on which OS X is based) as a web server was hacked into 144 times in a time period where Win 2000 was hacked over 2,200 times and OS 9 was not hacked at all.

    Now this doesn't mean there are 144 different vulnerabilities in BSD per-se, but it might. Has Apple patched all of these to make OS X as secure as OS 9 or will servers upgrading to OS X from OS 9 in fact be downgrading their security?
