    XP, which would you rather have? a system with more fixes and less vulnerabilities or one with less fixes and more vulnerabilities?. The main reason XP is swiss cheese is partly because it's closed source and partly because it's the most used. While I love OSX, Desktop-wise XP is the most used amongst companies and general users. OSX is the most used in publishing and art related industries, and Linux is the most used for servers and other areas where security is paramount.

    Since XP and OSX are both closed source, and thus both of them have smaller amounts of QA then an Open Sourced system. It's safer to say that BOTH XP and OSX have more critical issues then an open source system.
