Mac no better then windows!

Mac is no better then windows! The only reason windows has so many more virus,spyware on pc is because a lot more people use windows vs mac. If everyone had a mac then it would be just as bad as windows.

Actually I might go as far as to say Windows xp sp2 is better than OS X .

Most of the world uses Windows, because of this exploits are found and used on a widespread basis, and because of this Microsoft is forced to constantly update it's product.

Macs are less common and much less frequently targeted (for now). OS X has more security holes in it in comparison to Windows XP, but seldom do hackers try to exploit a Mac OS box.

Normally when a virus author writes a virus they are looking to have maximum impact. If your shooting for bragging rights, which hacker would you rather be? The one that writes a windows virus that affects millions of computers around the world? Or one that writes a Mac virus and infects 5 or 10 thousand?
