Does Research Support Dumping Linux?
Tim Mullen, 2002-12-02

Microsoft's security policies are getting better every day, even as a new report slams open-source competitors as security nightmares. But the easy answers aren't always the right ones.

Does Research bother looking at better alternatives? 2002-12-09

If Red Hat is a security nightmare out of the box, hey.
But it's fixable ...
Meanwhile, with 3-15 security notices about MS's black-boxware every week, who really thinks that's any better at all?
The answer: FreeBSD. The fact that FreeBSD doesn't enter these discussions routinely is a problem of the media on which we depend.
So the columnist should go look it up at www.freebsd.org and start thinking about it so they can say something useful when these things are discussed.
