Vista is 'more secure' says Gates

I can't be arsed to copy all of it or the most interesting stuff and then paste the link to the page it was found which i'm sure nobody will look at but... Here it is!

Link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/6313981.stm

I think it will be great until they do something to make it "Better" but it will end up screwing half the Microsoft users all over the world.
What do you think?

Before you flame gates... think about things he has done other than make computer programs... If you can't think of any, you're a fucking moron.

How is this news? They've been saying Vista will be more secure for years now... I'm sure this has been covered a million times. That's what the search button is for...

You mention a Microsoft product and the word "secure" in one sentence?
Seriously, Vista should be better than XP. Whatever that means...

This is news because maybe you weren't paying attention but "HE HAS SAID IT IS SECURE". Not been said before - Duh?

I'm just wondering what people think of how secure vista will be. I'm NOT flaming gates for shit. And even if i was, nobody should defend him.

Ok, go ask those who have had their entire education paid for, then, go ask him how he feels about giving away more money every year than Oprah makes.

I had XP retail without activation installed on my machine about a week before XP came out. I'd be surprised if Vista isn't hacked yet, I just don't see any reason to upgrade.

I am running Vista Business now. Like marlboroman said, Vista is as only secure as the user.

Quite tempted to buy a legal version of Vista through work. I can get Office 2003 for £17 just waiting for Vista and Office 2007 prices to come through.

I really liked the Office 2007 betas, I'd assume the full release is much more stable.

I want to get Vista legit... those boxes are too hot to pass up.
