A hekker versenyen nem erdekelte a versenyzoket az ubuntu

Linux ignored, not immune, says hacker contest sponsor

"There was just no interest in Ubuntu," said Terri Forslof, manager of security response at 3Com Corp.'s TippingPoint subsidiary, which put up the cash prizes awarded at the contest last week at CanSecWest. "A contest such as this is not a measure of relative security between operating systems. It's not an accurate barometer."

Erről itt már volt szó. :-)
It doesn't matter if you like my song as long as you can hear me sing

Meg egy emlitesre melto dolog:

According to Forslof, the Flash vulnerability Macaulay exploited on the Vista SP1 notebook is multiplatform and is present, for example, on both Mac OS X and Linux.

Vagy nem, mert a Mac-et elotte elvittek egy Safari buggal.

Ja, es majdnem lemaradt:
hekker => Definicio: Azon szemelyek osszefoglalo elnevezese, amelyek tipikusan a nyari honapokban egyes balatonparti vendeglatoipari egysegekben hekkbol (Merluccius merluccius) keszult etelt keszitenek.

Fontos feladatot soha ne bizz olyan gepre, amit egyedul is fel tudsz emelni!

És ennek ellenére:
"SP1 was a huge challenge to him," said Forslof. "When he walked in, he was strutting, he was going to own [that machine], he was going to break it in two minutes, he was going to wow the crowd."
That didn't happen, at least not immediately. Macaulay had prepared an exploit, said Forslof, but he had not tested it against Vista's SP1, which was released to the general public only two weeks ago.

Azaz eleve Windowsra épített, abból is az SP1 nélkülire, és ott a helyszínen igazított.

A linuxos gépért is ugyanannyi $ járt. Az, hogy kisebb az érdeklődés iránta, nem indokolja, hogy a pénzért se törték fel.

Ha egy programozasi versenyen egy feladatra keves csapat kuld csak be megoldast tesztelesre az miert lehet? (Es ok is elbuknak)

Biztos a zartkodu ubuntuba nehezebb volt hibat talalni es rajonni a kihasznalas modjara, ezert beken hagytak.
