My take: 90 days is a reasonable amount of time for Microsoft to get a fix out. It's not a reasonable amount of time to get a fix out and get it deployed to a reasonable percent of the user base.
The article is not just saying Google can fix their web applications faster. They're saying that is the whole point of making technology choices like webtop versus desktop.
Further, after the decades of outright disdain to bother releasing a stable, much less, a secure product from Microsoft, I'm not in a hurry to grant them leeway on this. If they published a counterpoint explaining why they need so much more time, I'd give it a fair reading.
