Yawn. Its always the same lame microsoft bashing that goes on when something like this comes out - face it what's the alternative? Anyone who has seriously tried to implement Linux (whatever the flavour) will have to admit that its harder to stay ahead of the hacker curve when anyone can have access to the source. All of the arguments that make Linux a great platform can be turned to make a case for avoiding it. How much do you think the liberal MP's who are so concerned really know about OS security? You might not like microsoft but at the moment, but in a supposedly competetive market there is no credible alternative.
