5 years + is how long it has taken to fix some security holes in windows.
Open Source has the advantage if you think its really important you can get to group of people who think its important as well if a small companys and pay a programmer to fix it. If you are a large company just use your on staff programmers.
Closed Source stuffed until vendor thinks its important. Like after a virus is released go threw that security hole.
Open Source is in your hands. Close Source is in some other company.
