Given the latest Windows security breach, A311 Death, which has affected more than 10,000 Australian users according to Australia's peak computer security body AusCERT, as reported by ABC Website, now is a great time to press the Australian Tax Office for an explanation of why they offer e-tax in a way which not only exclusively promotes Microsoft, but also forces taxpayers who want to submit their tax online to use a product with a well known history of serious security problems.

The e-tax product works exclusively on Windows XP or Windows 2000, so you can't even use it if you happen to have an old Microsoft product or a Macintosh.

Here is a letter which I submitted to the tax office for an explanation. You would add a great deal of weight to this letter if you and your friends submitted a similar polite complaint. Please seize the moment!
