Re: Proof that most companies have no clue about security
The feeling was akin to one you might have if you were hoping for a bike for Xmas, but got a pair of socks instead - which I hasten to add would be welcome if they were good quality woollen ones
I know exactly what you mean.
But the trouble with MS-DOS is that one sock is a good quality, nicely-made garment, but the other has no toe bit, and some of it is made of some nasty acrylic thread...
Like I said - the original, reasonable design is quite clear if you look at the internals. But the implementation of that design was never finished, and a bunch of stuff was lashed up over the top of the unfinished project to produce what we all know and - errr - don't love.
