Allchin stands up for Windows security. The states' antitrust remedy would expose Microsoft's OSes to hackers and viruses, and could further the illegal spread of digital content, according to Windows exec Jim Allchin. [CNET News.com]

Many Microsoft's arguments in court come across as laughable.  How is having more that one choice in media players, in email clients, or in other software products bad for security?  It seems to me that uniformity is bad for security, diversity is good for security.  Concerning DRM, if they depend on code secrecy to protect digital content, they must not have a very secure technology.
