Interesting stuff - running a Linux server like we do, I'm definitely aware of how not true the whole "Linix is invulnerable" concept that some hardcore Linux guys espouse. I think most of the real damage today in computing comes from social engineering hacks, where it's not about the operating system, it's about the user making a stupid decision.
