Another OS Delay and More Security Trouble for Microsoft

[ microsoft | security | windows xp ]
Status: [OPEN] comments (0) | add a comment | confidence poll
Microsoft still sucks at security and users suffer for it. My best guess is they are planning on putting all this new technology in the "next" operating system, which seems to be yet another year behind schedule. The important question the world will soon be asking -- "Do we need another Windows operating system?" In 2006, Windows XP gets another service pack and/or facelift. Nothing more.
