One of the main reasons is that the Mac integration of OS, HW and BIOS provides additional security over the open architecture approach of many different vendors attempting to build to a set of standards.

Right, that's why OS X is demonstrably more secure than, say, FreeBSD. Except, well, it isn't. So I guess we can round-file this one too.

There is no reason to think this is going to change with a change of CPUs.
