Advocating Microsoft? No. Pointing out nothing is unbreakable regardless of the marketing campaign? Yes.

Stating that software, regardless of who developed it, is unbreakable falls well into the later of the aforementioned.
If one can make it, another can break it.
Since being in this industry since 1977, and Banyan, Novell, Unisys, HP, Oracle (Dev / DBA), Linux, Sun Java and MS (OS/Dev/DBA) certified and having to contend with the installation / management issues of all of them, saying that software can not be broken/compromised is ridiculous.
I do not ever remember the likes of MS or Novell for example, stating that any of their products were unbreakable, and of course history has proven that. However, Oracle has had just as many issues, as have MS, Sun, Novell, Linux and the like, they just do not get talked about as loudly.
One being more secure or stable over the other is still up for debate. Experience says, that would totally depend on who’s minding the store and the machines.
