Beware of Geek

I see Microsoft as the company that has become so big it finds it difficult to manage itself hence producing software that constantly fail and need patches after patches...

well my opinions haven't changed much except after reading this article from PC World ive come to the conclusion that ppl just like picking on it for 'funsies'...

after reading that article i can almost see the next major flaw in Vista:

"...A new security hole has been uncovered in Vista which potentially allows a hacker to do whatever he likes with the victim's system. In order to gain control the hacker must break into the victim's house, tie him up, torture him to get his password, log on, install a backdoor trojan, disable all firewalls, run back to his computer, and remotely access the victim's system.

Microsoft has issued a warning to its customers to better protect their homes..."

This shout-hacking is supposed to be a joke right? People don't serisouly think its a threat.. do they??? :-/

I can almost imagine geeks eagerly waiting with pitchforks er... umm... keyboards in their hands waiting for Microsoft to unleash its Vista OS so they can maul it down and claim to be the first to find a security flaw... [i guess it gives pleasure bringing down a behemoth]....

to all trigger happy geeks out there... [esp those at PC world].... give it time... Vista is also from Microsoft.... it WILL have flaws... only u gotta wait for some real flaw to come up and leave these
