    Windows only has a few features that linux can't beat. Vast numbers of people have jobs fixing Windows computers and they never seem to run out clients.
    The biggest security threat is the user.

    I wouldn't go that far.
    some of these machines we have to fix can be pretty difficult.
    I spent 5 hours cleaning a system once.
    Having to root all the crap out of the worst designed piece of software I have ever seen, the Windows registry.
    And if you miss one file, save and close. That one file can repliicate itself, and you are back to square one. Not what I would call easy money.
