I know HTML5 is a ways off but I'm hoping it will improve things. |

Internet security seems to be a bit of a problem lately. Banks and such |
| 15 |
getting hacked is not good. Either the hackers are getting better or |
| 16 |
some security people ain't getting the job done. I figure some of |
| 17 |
both. Add in that hackers seem to be doing things in groups, finding a |
| 18 |
hole is not as hard to do. I think that is also one reason Linux is as |
| 19 |
secure as it is. There are lots of people looking at source code so |
| 20 |
finding problems are happening all the time. I also think Linux folks |
| 21 |
jump on problems and get them fixed quicker too. |

I guess Adobe is going to be a weak spot for a good long while. That's |
| 24 |
not good for Linux, M$ or Macs either I guess. |
