What is more secure, Linux or Windows?

clutch

There is a thread going on at NTComp's sister site that asks the question What is more secure, Linux or Windows?. It appears that I am the only one there offering options for Windows and why it can be very secure.

I vote for the following: Freeman - George Clooney or Ben Affleck (depening on desired age) GMan - Peter O'Toole or Christopher Walken Alyx - Lucy Liu or Uma Thurman Any movie must also include the Busey Brothers in armed forces capacity, Also Michael Ironside (little Starship Troopers nod there).
