    Or maybe it is a conspiracy to make us patch our systems once instead of 14
    times. By doing so we would have more free time which probably increases
    xbox sales.

    I use Linux, OpenBSD and Windows in my enterprise. Linux and OpenBSD use
    the "1 patch for 1 vulnerability" rule. Seems to me that MS is bunching
    their patches together in order to make it seem on the surface that Windows
    has less patches than other Oses, therefore it is more secure. CIOs, take
    note.
