Just thinking about this aspect. XP is a mature system and by now I would
expect the majority of its vulnerabilities have already be been
discovered, attacked and patched. Of course some will remain but they must
be becoming increasingly hard to find. W8, on the other hand, is an
entirely fresh opportunity.
