Uh...FALSE.  Although for now I think bugs and exploits tend to be more 
of a problem, I can see that with more Windows-level (I'm sorry but I 
don't know of any other way to say it) users using much more 
user-friendly linux distros, I think we may face a day when Linux has 
the problems which Windows faces now.  I hope that with better coding 
practices this will be mitigated.  I hope that is not wishful thinking.  
Peace, Dennis
