While the College of Arts & Architecture here at Penn State is 95% Mac, there's that 5% stake held by Windows users I help maintain. All the guys who don't have to maintain PCs aren't scrambling around today like me, patching Windows yet again to defeat the RPC vulnerabilities that were supposedly secured by the previous updates. </p> I am jealous today.
