Microsoft's OS does not contain an SQL database, it's a separate product. Any security comparision should compare security bugs only in Red Hat components that correspond to a component that is bundled with Windows.

Just the same, if it took Red Hat months to ship a security patch in mysql that had already been released by upstream, then they deserve criticism. Black hats often look for windows of this kind (where a bug fix has been released but large numbers of people haven't installed it).

Other than the fact that this report is biased (not to mention a load of bullshit), I just think it's funny that it was written by people with Ph.Ds. Honestly, did you not pay attention in English over your 20+ years of education? I can't stand when adult indiviuals have the composition skills of a middle school student. Ignorant ass wipes... no wonder they took a job funded by Microsoft...
