Yea and if MS said the same thing, in the same context, for the same issue, in the same circumstances, people would call them liars, and political posturing.
What actually might be interesting would be a clarification that the security exploit probably requires the exploiter to already be on the wireless network. Therefore, it would only work on an open AP or where the exploiter has already managed to join the encrypted network.

I'm saying that either systemworks was taking a shot in the dark and won. Or apple is hiding the fact that they were right.
