Those are reported and fixed vulnerability statistics, all they mean is that Apple have acknowledged and fixed more bugs than Microsoft.
Also the root escalation vulnerability requires physical access to your bloody machine! Might be a problem for Universities or public libraries or even conceivably offices but really the average user can rest easily.
Also, I'm getting a real kick out of your replies...
Hello proud member of the MDF! I salute your love of the xbox...
Clearly a videogame console that renders a $60 game unusable is just a joking matter.
Gaming became serious when MS and Sony decided to make it expensive. Now they have to pay when they fuck up.
Nerd much? This is the same 'it doesn't have enough features for an uber-nerd like me!' crap that came with the iPod. Not as functional/feature rich as a Blackberry/Treo/Windows Mobile Device/Nomad/Zen etc etc. Fortunately for Apple you represent about 0.0001 % of the US population, but on the Internet you make about 20% of the noise...
Listen, I realise that sometimes you may have trouble keeping your Wii up, but that is no reason to get discouraged and stop using it! After all, life without a Wii... well it's tough.
I swear I got an email about this the other day. It's a sort of pump attachment you place on the Wii that claims to make it twice as powerful and much larger, presumambly to bring it into line with the 360 and the PS3. Unfortunately, I read some customer reviews that said it only worked for ten minutes or so and the results were dissapointing.
Microsoft are suffering from a bit of inertia, Sony are suffering from a weak launch and the Wii is being called a fad. Que Lame Console Fanboy Wars, from the makers of Boba Fett and Jar Jar Binks Adventures in A Seedy Coruscant Bar. And none of it will make a difference in sales in the end because what really drives sales is the mysterious 'public' that the hardcore just don't get. The people who buy each Madden iteration (I won't call them 'games'). The people who buy Sponge Bob Kids Adventure. How did 'gaming' move so far away from them? How is it that we don't understand their wants. Oh yeah, we never did!
But what if people don't buy the game? What if only half your player base do? What if the people who bought xbox 360s bought them because they don't want motion sensing controls, they prefer controllers. Oh Isee you split your market.
The second part of your strategy is exactly the same mistake Sega made with Mega CD and 32x.
They split their own market. It would be an excellent way for Microsoft or Sony to run their console into the ground, but as a way of introducing motion sensing it would be retarded. Best bet is to ride it out until next generation.

I take it you have never actually travelled outside the Western world. Go to China, it'll be an eye opener I promise.
Fucking Micronerds

It only affects iPhone's that are unlocked because they are unlocked by taking advantage of an EXPLOIT.
Cheap weed in the UK is often brown. I wonder if that's why...
By the same token you will admit then that Bioshock is just an FPS underwater and is essentially System Shock Submerged?
Are all Americans as eloquent as you? Because that is some beautiful use of language, like having your ears gently stroked by a fucking jackhammer.
Who the fuck modded this shit up?
Look it really wasn't my weed, I was just holding it for someone, you gotta believe me...
A step in the right direction at last. It's nice to read some positive news about copyright.

Of course the homebrew does require a completely unsupported third party device...
A million pounds? Fucking hell for that sort of money you can have my phone and I'll throw in a testicle too...
Pretty sure they are not going to bother, MS waved a bag of money and the BBC took it.

But they do have to reverse engineer it, at least Nintendo could get Sega to actively help them emulate it.

What an idiot you are. Most people HATE their cellphones.
I have bad news man, whoever you gave your wii to, they are bound to be dissapointed. After all, it's very small compared to the competition.
The flying thing isn't a mod or a cheat, it's the Halo super hero WonderChief!
Bollocks. I'd say it's about equal.

Out of interest, why did the dwarf have cancer? Was it just a coincidence or was it brought about by not being allowed to have sex?
