perhaps if you read it then it would make sense. the proof lies in the facts. if you actually knew what the hell you were talking about then it would be moe tof course, if you really actually believe that windows is 'superior' to linux or that linux is not safer, partially because of it's not the 'mainstream' platform, then perhaps you should talk with someone who works in the field, or knows about computers. it's obvious that you know nothing.

NOTE: i apologize to everyone else for making a personal sidetrip here. i do feel though, that the time has come for someone to make a stand against the useless and senseless and noninformative claims made by inaccurate self assessment from unexperienced persons.
this is a board for reading and getting something usefull out of, and not for listening to children and their egos.
i rarely make any posts, but i do feel so strongly against the continuation of these useless and vapor-filled personal claims.
this is for "QX2", (or queen xylophone II), since s/he made some personal comments and truely displayed his/her ignorance, arrogance, and intelligence (or lack thereof). And, to all of you blind idolatrous windoze users, using your 'point-and-click' world (which, i remind all, was stolen from macintosh), browsing around on the internet unsuspecting or knowledgible of the superiority of linux, (and macintosh). while you live your lives inside the box of hubris, behind bill gates and his ego and need for power, enjoy the notion that those of us linux users, who actually know the difference between flavors and microsoft (unlike windows users, and what advantages there are with linux that are not offered with microsoft, -also blind to windows users) are creatively and actively assisting in a more diplomatic and sensible operating environment. and while you settle for your run of the mill, microsoft-fisherprice "operating system" (although the word 'operating' here is a relative term, and also somewhat subjective in reference because of the continuous viruses and bugs that affect and infect windows), enjoy the notion that 9 out of 10 networks are run with linux.
and, as for your claim that 'no software is 100% safe', linux and especially macs (although i am not a mac-advocate) have been proved to be far less vunerable than windows. this is precisely why your precious dod, armed forces, and major governmental networks are run on linux.
and, as for your offer to 'crack my box' or anyone elses, that is something that i would obviously be more than willing to subject myself to with you behind the wheel, or keyboard as i doubt that by your sentence structure, lack of an informative response, and blatant offering to 'crack my box' that you are of legal age to drive. and less do i feel that my computers or networks would be subject to any harm with you 'crack'ing, or, attempting to do so.
...this is the problem with todays youth, just another example of an unintelligent and naive little child...)
and, about your inaccuracte claim that
"Anyone with enough computer security experience knows that the only true mesure (SIC) of security (or how secure a system is) is how long it takes to crack and the amount of processing power required to do it,"
i resign that these claims are false, and very clearly identify you as someone who is not in the security field, let-alone someone with any experience 'crack'-ing.
so, rather than surround yourself with terms that have no identity within your fictional possessed mind, why not spend your time accurately assessing what it means to 'crack' a computer or network infrastructure, and then give opinions that are fact based.
i can tell you from first hand experience, and from actively having government clearance for years, that the (glamorous) live you suspect behind a computer is something that you will not find. you impress me not, and in fact, if you would like to 'crack' my box sometime you little teenie pion then let me know.
until then, go on and enjoy your little cupcakes, fruit juice, and oreos, and leave the big work to us professionals who know what we're talking about.
AGAIN, i apologize to others for feeling that i must include this in post. please accept my apologies.
