Certain banks (the Nationwide being one) are now using Windows as the Operating System for Cashpoints. Now, don't get me wrong, I am a fan of Windows but I am slightly worried by this. After all, more Windows security holes get discovered than other O/s s. Do you really want that kind of OS handling your cash?

Have a look at http://bbs.adslguide.org.uk/showthre...anded&sb=5&o=0 for further discussion.
