Windows Just when you thought the insanity was over, researchers claim that two new WMF exploits (along with proof of concept code) have been identified in the wild. This news comes just days after Microsoft released an 'out of cycle' patch for a newly discovered WMF exploit. The new flaws affect fully patched versions of Windows 2000, Windows XP (SP2 included) and Windows Server 2003.

OS X *is* prettier in most cases than most Linux installations, and it *is* more stable. There have been countless times that I have seen a component of KDE/GNOME crash or become unresponsive. Hell, a friend of mine even demonstrated an easily-reproducible bug with a GNOME toolbar from the latest "stable" release -- dragging some kind of non-file/folder icon onto a toolbar completely froze GNOME consistently each and every time.

I have been using OS X for a solid 5 months, and the only crashes or freezes I have experienced were with the Finder looking for a network drive that was no longer available.
