I think your math is a little off.....
Securia, this site you're so gung-ho on showing us that rips apart the arguments to use Windows Server 2003, and instead use Gentoo Linux....
Windows Server 2003 has 79 vunerbilities on their site, while Gentoo has over 700!!!!
Seems like someone's not paying attention.
Windows Server 2003 is a very good environment. Period. I challenge you to show me a point where Windows Server 2003 is severely deficient in the product offerings. Not just "well, it's MS, so it has to stink". Not the religious arguments. If you haven't used it, then you need to stop blasting it. It's got a LOT of nice features.
I haven't used the Gentoo Linux build, but from the numbers you've shown, they look like a major danger as opposed to MS.
So, please stop the religious attacks on the MS/Linix wars. It doesn't help your side to post junk like that.

Windows 2003: "Currently, 8 out of 71 Secunia advisories, is marked as "Unpatched" in the Secunia database."
Gentoo: "Currently, 0 out of 746 Secunia advisories, is marked as "Unpatched" in the Secunia database."
Of course given the differences in the licensing and, more importantly, the packaging of Linux distributions versus how Microsoft does theirs its really hard to compare 'Linux' and Windows on a one for shot. but Ive seen both camps use secunia, cert and other such numbers in a way anyone even close to even tempered on the subject should abhor..
