Did you read the article? The author addresses this "argument." If Macs had a majority of the market share then sure, they would be targeted more often. However, that does not mean that Macs would prove to be more vulnerable than Windows boxes. Using your logic, Apache web server (the most widely used web server software in the world) should be more vulnerable than IIS. In reality, this is not the case. Windows can be a very usable OS but you have to be very carefull and you have to have an anti-virus program eating up your RAM all the time. I have never had this problem with any of the Macs or Linux boxes I have owned or used.
Paying more for an OS used on a multiple processor box would be like paying more for gas because you have an 8 cylinder engine instead of a 4 cylinder.

Fark of course!

This the type of "feature" for which so many /.'ers criticize Micro$loth.

Most of the people I know think the Internet is AOL. Attempting the educate the "Great Masses of the Unwashed" is an almost unsurmountable task.
