"Look, we know ms isn't secure. And hey, we thank you, that's what keeps us employed. If the whole world ran on Unix boxes, the information security industry would have never come about."

You are joking, Mr. or Mrs. Anonymous, aren't you? If you make such unprofessional assertions, why not under your real name? Perhaps you are in fear your boss could read this and question your security expertise.
