Good points of top n lists

I thought it was only fair to point out the flip side of top n lists, since my last post I pointed out the problems with them in an artilce from Gary McGraw. This one is found here. Here is a good summarizing quote from the blog, "I agree, just the list would be pretty worthless. The best part of each of these lists, however, are the pains they go to providing excellent information on mitigation strategies and tactics. Use this information to whatever advantage you can. It is, after all, free."
