    The only reason humans can use speech to effciently communicate with each other is that along with speech comes tone, body language, and symantic context that conveys as much (if not more) information than the vocal message itself. Computers cannot pick up on those kinds of things. Boddy language.. well that rules the common phone out as an effective communication medium.

    There are so many flavors of unix out there that it is hard to find a flaw that is exploitable accross all/majority of them(unlike the M$ software which is often based on the same code NT/2000/XP etc ). At the kernel level anyway.

    Both approaches have pros and cons. It appears the unix approach is working for virus/worm attacks. Reminds me of natural selection. Unix has many different flavors and thus survives a virus. Microsoft does not, and thus a successful virus can wipe it out the entire species.
