When I say "in general" that means not so for every vendor.

That said, Apple's track record on this topic is not exactly stellar.

Apple rolls out security updates infrequently, but it seems that every time they do, I see fixes for issues I'd never heard of before. Now, I don't exactly seek out vulnerability reports, but they certainly seem to be fixing things that didn't get high-profile articles on social news sites.
This is true.

But people who submit security issues to them say that their turnaround time tends to be very long. Which is bad for their customers if the submitted security issue is being exploited in the wild.
