If you get mugged walking down the main street of Harlem, it's your own fault for not taking Karate lessons, or taking better precautions/advise.
If you get mugged walking down the main street of a city with a very safe reputation, then you can hardly be blamed for not being locked away inside your house.
It all comes down to being aware of the environment you're about to venture into. Based on general information available, someone visiting America would most likely avoid Harlem. Muggings rates, etc are public knowledge.
This is completely different when it comes to compromised websites. There is no public knowledge of which websites are safe, and which you'll end up exploited just from browsing to.
This is *almost* the equivilent of someone from the 1200's walking down the main street of Harlem with a white hood, and a sign saying "Hitler is God", completely oblivious to the hazards, and trusting the person who sent them there.

From the article;
I believe that Fedora's installer is both easy to use and powerful and succeeds in satisfying both power and casual users
I tried the installation, and was extremely disappointed to find that you couldn't individually select packages - only 'groups'.
Even when I unselected some 'groups', packages from that group still found their way into the installation.
I then installed RedHat Enterprise3 ES, only to find you can no longer individually select packages in this version either!
