Not really. They're dumb and weak OSes, but if the System Administrator decides to set 'em up on production machine in Internet - it's his guilty. And this fact is not a new one - but why the most people are using theese OSes? Because professional OSes are for professionals, not for a lamers beleiving themselves to be professionals. HP-UX, Solaris, Open/Free/Net BSD, AIX, MacOS X - are they worse? Are they harder to configure, setup or run a software under? No. But they're sophisticated OSes. Dumb lamer can't administer an OS that is smarter than him.
