Hey Daniel,
It seems that most of your points of disagreement stem from the potential for poor system administration by homo sapiens (and other primates who might have access to a console), but I still think that from a pure design and implementation perspective, *nix systems are more secure for the reasons the articles point out.
Certainly any system can suffer reduced security through laziness or poor administration. I mean, how many amateur system administrators respond to "I have a permissions problem" with "chmod 777 *"?
But do you not think the permissions issues with who can run what on *nix versus XP makes it more secure?
