"That was the thrust of the article. Comparing that to Windows, where a single vendor has end to end responsibility, is unfair at best."

Windows wasn't mentioned anywhere in the entire article.

Whatever the state of security in the Windows NT kernel, it matters little. The Linux kernel has some problems, and they need to be addressed.
