Actually, so is Windows. It's just so unwilling to check for problems
that users can run (walk) for months with a problem and never know it.
With Windows vs Linux boxes set up by professionals in the shop, as
almost every machine is these days, the Linux machines have far fewer
service calls, and many of those are from new staff who want to install
their favourite virus^H^H^H^H^Hgame on the office system or such like.
