as for ‘…assuming macs are safer than Windows PCs…”, most mac users do not assume.

They know that there are many tens of thousands of viruses, spyware and trojans for windows XP and VISTA…there are NONE for mac. ( so far…)

the biggest issue for win users is the virus industry which has a vested interest in selling a solution.

macs have a solution built into the operating system.

win takes the susceptibility as a ‘business opportunity’

uncritical media is part of the issue InformationWeek is rarely critical of the windows operating system
