A recent XP security hole begs the question, do we really want Microsoft to release individual fixes for every bug?

If he thinks switching to Netware and Groupwise is a solution, he's in for a big disappointment.
People act like these things are unique to Microsoft. They aren't. A lot of people need to get a &#$%&#* clue. Novell has had its share of individual patch vs. service pack issues in the past. Believe me, they've kept me awake many nights. *nix is no miracle on its own either. It takes a competent sysadmin to make any of these systems reliable.
The best solution is to have individual fixes available with occaisional roll-ups into larger packs. Individually, neither method will fit everyone's needs.
