Remember the "trusted computing initiative" memo to all the MicroSofties from Uncle Bill last year?

In ten years, you're going to be b!tching about how it isn't fair that Microsoft is hitting Orange Book A1 standards and has a monopoly on security technology.

��5{��������ars, you're going to be b!tching about how it isn't fair that Microsoft is hitting Orange Book A1 standards and has a monopoly on security technology.

If in ten years, Microsoft produces a secure operating system, I will be dancing in the streets. That way I won't have hoards of zombied Windows servers pinging the hell out of my Class Cs around the country.

I find it amusing that they think a memo and maybe some classes for their programmers will fix the problem. No, Microsoft, it is about rewriting all your old code from scratch with security in mind for every line.

As you have said to me before, "Defend this!". Large market share? More software? Cheap hardware? Should be interesting to hear what you have to say about Windows and the confirmation by the lead M$ Windows guy that its completely insecure.

Don't just say I hate Microsoft, this was posted with a Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse and proofed in Word. :P
