Either way you look at it, Microsoft is presenting a strong case against its own product line.
The quote is from this article on Yahoo!news, talking about Microsoft's decision or unability to patch a denial-of-service security hole in NT4, effectively showing their desire to kill the product, altough they're meant to support it until 2005.

The good thing is, this makes a strong argument for Open-Source: Microsoft demonstrates once again that being able to fix systems without relying to the good will of vendors is a definite advantage in IT.

Thanks to Marc for pointing this article out.
