Voici un extrait qui m'a éclairé (j'ai un peu la flemme de faire la traduc, désolé) :
But you must understand that Microsoft limits its investments to things that will enhance a product's market share. Every feature in Windows had to pass the litmus test, "Does it increase market share?" Putting security safeguards in their products evidently failed the litmus test, and therefore weren't added. While it is true that virus authors will target platforms that give them the most bang for their programming buck, the Windows platform has virtually no security to even slow them down. I believe the lack of security in Microsoft software was a deliberate business decision.
Le "litmus test" c'est le test du papier tournesol je crois (on trempe le papier dans une solution et il prend des couleurs différentes selon que la solution est acide ou basique). C'est un test quoi :-)
