Heh... OpenVMS is dead. If I had a nickle for every time I heard that... Let's see, OpenVMS outlasted Digital. Compaq. Tru-64. OSF-1. HP-UX. SunOS. Apollo. Next. OS/2. SGI. Tandem. Cray. and tons of others that tried to kill it. Even HP.

Now, about AutoRun. Seems MS didn't really "disable" autorun, but rather just turned it off. And based on the screenshot shown above, it looks like iTunes defaults to "NO", don't turn on AutoRun. Yeah, the option needs to be removed, but since everyone gave Microsoft 25 years to fix their built-in security flaw, perhaps we should give Apple a little more than a couple months to adapt their software?
