Let's not forget that in an open source OS and open source software in general have open source bugs and vulnerabilities.
It's not *that* easy to find these flaws in a hidden source OS. Even though, these bugs are in deed found in Windows OS's and they are a *lot* more problematic than the (mostly) minor security problems in Linux and other open source systems.
We can always wait (sometimes forever) for a stupid 'patch' from Microsoft to solve _half_ the problem. In the meantime let's waste time and money. Or change to open source. Hard choice, isn't it?
