I'm managing my small business in developing the protections for individual clients (not some widespread bullshit like armadillo or so) and I can assure you, OS doesn't really matter.

I am sure, having browsed your past posts, that you for one know more about the inner workings of the Windows OS than most of Microsoft.
My point is, you can write the most solid code, but it is the underlying design of the OS, Windows in particular, that would allow others to unravel the protection written to run on it.
Until there is a fundamental change on the hardware level, (and not just an execution bit for example), M$ Windows apps will be more vunerable than apps written for a hardened OS or embedded system.
Not a rant, no disrespect, just my 2-cents.
