The article has to do with network centralized updating. There are many avenues open to a MS shop to do this with additional software. WTF is it with Linux users that make them so annoying? Totally off subject and wrong. Linux is my OS of choice but I might have to start running BSD to avoid getting painted with the cult brush. You aren't helping with Linux acceptance. Stop.

This way ALL programs (including Firefox, OpenOffice, Graphic program, music player,etc) get patched/updated centrally. Windows will never be able to do this. The answer is simple: Use Linux.

I use it at home. I have colleagues who work there. I also work at Bit9. The list was aimed at IT administrators and enterprises that need a way to centralize patching and updates. Only popular apps that cannot be centrally updated by IT made it on the list. The writer here, John Lister, got it right here in the description. The only point I'd add is that Microsoft made it onto the list, too. It's the third year in a row for the list and this year it's gotten lots more attention for some reason. I love Firefox.
