Microsoft has announced Vista's release dates. From a security standpoint what choice should consumers take during this Christmas shopping season? Most will be faced with Windows XP only or Windows XP with Microsoft's Express Upgrade option to Vista. Federico Biancuzzi interviewed a wide range of security researchers and anti-virus folks to get some consensus on the security of Vista over Windows XP for consumers, with some advice for corporate users as well.

For a layman (like my Uncle who clicks on all offers and links ... beleive me I have tried) I would prefer Mac OS X or a recompiled version of UNIX, (which he currently has), so he stays secure and gets what he wants. Microsoft can go to the companies (anyway I guess it only survives on office and related) and let the average user know that THEY SHOULD UNDERSTAND THE OS TO SECURE IT.
