My interpretation is that the only reason Windows is
more "secure" is because they are more familiar with
it. The same reason they use M$ office, because they
are more familiar with it. In other words, the reason
we like M$ better, is because it's all we've ever
know. Interpretation: M$'s unfair, illegal,
monopolistic tactics have paid big, big, big
dividends.
