    Really!

  2. Why don't you just use a REAL operating system... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    ...instead of screwing around applying patches to software written by amateurs?

    If you had been using an OS written by professionals (like Windows), you wouldn't have these vulnerabilities!!!

    Dear Apple,

    I ama homosexual. I boughtan Apple computer because of its well earned reputation for being "the" gay computer. Since I have become an Apple owner, I have been exposed to a whole new world of gay friends. It is really a pleasure to meet and compute with other homos such as myself. I plan on using my new Apple computer as a way to entice and recruit young schoolboys into the homosexual lifestyle; it would be so helpful if you could produce more software which would appeal to young boys. Thanks in advance.

    with much gayness,

    Father Randy "Pudge" O'Day, S.J.
