MS hack the talk of Linux conference
Making Linux more secure against attacks is debated at the first-ever
federal Linux user's conference.

It amazes me that gummint bureaucrats can say that Linux is not in use in
gummint operations because it lacks security, yet they are quite prepared
to use a commercial OS with proven insecurity! ...or are they suggesting
that they would like to consider Linux in their high security arenas?
