  Define "professional tool".

  That's BS. Basically every time a security hole is found in the linux kernel,
a patch appears in a matter of *hours*.

  How soon do you get security patches for Windows when security flaws are
found? Certainly not within hours. At best within days, at worst within
months (yes, it has happened).

  So yes, the linux community *is* better in security than MS is.
