Has anybody wondered why, after ten years, they still find security issues? Why would W7 be any better? Or W8? Too bad with all the money Microsoft has that they can't get any talented programmers. Too many examples of poor design and/or programming in most Microsoft products. Very sad.


Roger - you do not think that the code base of Windows XP is the same as 2001 do you and they are still finding issues in the same piece of code? Most code is rewritten, refactored, and replaced over time. Pieces come and go. I would be concerned if no security patches were being done, which will be the case in 24 months.



So Windows 7 will have no issues? I don't think so. No one yet knows how to build a stable system that will never need fixes. They're just not smart enough.
