You asked for an example, I gave you one.  Saying "well that won't 
happen today" is moot.

Exploits can happen, will happen and do happen because it's humans 
writing the code and humans are fallible.  At some point this 
exploitable code will be on your "Linux Desktop" therefore your "Linux 
desktop" is exploitable.

It doesn't matter how much you dislike this, it's still the truth. 
You're argument is fundamentally flawed. i.e. you're wrong.

You're the person in denial here.  You refuse to accept that your "Linux 
Desktop" will be exploitable when it's patently obvious that machines 
with no public services running (which is your definition) can, will and 
have been exploited, see the libpng example in my other mail.
