Yep, Apple tell the same lies about how good their systems are as Microsoft
does, the sad thing is Microsoft tell more and bigger lies than Apple. operating Systems are like any physical security system, they can be broken into - it's just that the better ones require a lot more time, effort, and knowledge to break into while the poor ones can be broken into by a kid with a piece of wire. Well, since Microsoft started putting out Windows they've found there are lots of kids out their with bits of wire. The fact Microsoft also design in some security holes for their own use don't help at all. And before you go about saying they don't, every case of a hacker or virus or trojan attack that uses an application like MSIE, Word, Excel etc to leap into the Windows OS is only able to do that due to the back door security holes Microsoft have made to allow their apps to bypass the security.
It's the huge weaknesses in Windows that requires Microsoft to spend hundreds of millions of dollars in marketing costs to get the system out there so widely spread. A good advertising firm can sell anything - regardless of what it is or if it works, that's a proven fact.
