Well Microsoft is the biggest target for finding faults. I know they don't think everything is perfect. Oracle has put down a gauntlet that few will feel the need to tackle not enough targets unless you like the challenge. Nothing is bug free and the attacks are getting extremely interesting. The better the attack the better the software will get. I hope people continue to tackle Microsoft XP it will make it a better product in the long run. They are learning as fast as the faults are being found. I wonder if Oracle can learn with their CEO saying its unbreakable. If he feels that way what does it say about the internal workings of the program. I wonder how many testers are they going to blame and fire for development mistakes. Developers never make a mistake it is always on test to prove they are human. And thankyou hacker community for bringing a few more developers back to human status.
