The problems with Windows XP threaten the entire internet and that IS of
national security concern. The problem is so severe that the Feds have had
to have a "heart to heart" talk with MS to get them to clean up their act.
Maybe they have, maybe they haven't. There are lots of sites which are
covering this.

If you're talking about Gates he's NOT innovative. Microsoft has NEVER been
an innovative company except in their predatory practices which are
unmatched.
