Microsoft software is inherently less safe than Linux/*BSD software.

This is because Microsoft has favored usability over security.

This is because the market has responded better to that tradeoff.

This is because your mom doesn't want to have to hire a technical
consultant to manage her IT infrastructure when all she wants to do is get
email pictures of her grandkids.
