Full Disclosure and why Vendors Hate it

The link above will take you to a fairly short, yet comprehensive rumination of why full and complete disclosure of security problems in phones, computers and their software and other communication/office devices we use.

This discussion has been taking place for ages now. Nothing has ever been settled. Nothing! Frankly, the signal to noise ratio is frightening. It's all laid out here for those of you who are already impressed with a need for full disclosure. And for those of you not so convinced, this may alter your position.

Microsoft Confirms Windows 7 for 2010 (17 screenshots)

Now it begins. Microsoft isn't going to be all that talkative about the next version of Windows, at least for a while. They don't want to hurt Vista sales. However; they do want you to know they are working on a successor to Vista and have evidently released a few screenshots (17 in all) to show that off.

It really does seem as if they have copied the Apple Mac desktop, this time.
