Apple Takes the Lead in Software Bugs

"Being in the lead is not always a good thing. Apple takes number one stop for the most bugs found in all of its products during the first half of 2010, ahead of Oracle, and Microsoft, according to Secunia."

I had no idea who Secunia was, so I did a little research (ie, I did a Wikipedia search). Apparently, they're a computer security firm with a reliable record in tracking down security vulnerabilities. I'm not sure that this means too much, given that Oracle, Microsoft and HP weren't trailing behind Apple by much, though I would like to see Apple take a more proactive approach when it comes to vulnerabilities patching. Now that there are more Macs out there than ever before, they might start looking like tempting targets for hackers.
