However, I think that a lot of documented virus holes would come out if people attacked Macs on as regular a basis as Windows. It's just that nobody bothers, if you are going to wreak havoc, might as well do it on 95% of the computers.
The fact that the virus stuff gets through firewalls is irrelevant to platform.

As one who leads a schizophrenic computer existence (Windows at work, Mac at home), I have to agree with Per. Even with firewalls, constant anti-virus updates, etc., we still fight virus incursions on a regular basis at the office. To date (fingers crossed), I haven't had a single virus problem on my Mac; very little spam (not even the Nigerian instant wealth letter), and no porn emails (darn!). Am I just boring or leading a charmed existence?
