Windows Vista security is a joke

Posted on Wednesday, Feb 14, 2007 at 02:10 AM in ,

You might think that apple is poking fun at windows in this latest Mac advertisement, but you'd be fooling yourself.  But judging by the comments in Very Severe Hole" in Vista UAC Design, its really a documentary, not an ad.  What's the giant security hole - oh yeah - any installer automatically runs with administrator privileges, any installer.  Did it really take Microsoft 6 years to figure this out when both Mac and Linux already work their way?  Or is this how they innovate?

I like Apple as much as the next guy

Is it going to be this easy?

It already was. Microsoft is great with consistency.
