Windows Vista is "dramatically more secure than any other operating system that we have released"

Fixed.

I like your statement beter.....was just reading about this newest Linus distro this morning:

Review: Trustix Secure Linux lives up to its name

This is not a desktop distro...however...

Trustix Secure Linux is an interesting distro for servers that is designed to be all about security. While Linux, in general, is fairly secure, a distro that focuses on security and stability from the ground up should be a good choice for Internet servers. In our testing, we found Trustix lives up to its intentions.

*********************************

Trustix concentrates on keeping it simple. You won't get a GUI or the latest bells and whistles. What you do get with Trustix is a small and secure distribution that incorporates IBM's Stack Smash Protection, which protects the system and applications from stack-smashing attacks. This is one of the major forms of attacks, and many secure Linux distros have this turned on by default.
