I've got a better test. I'll run my iBook with OSX connected to the Internet for five years with no virus scanner, no spyware scanner, and no add-on firewall (Oh, wait! I've already done that) and someone with strong faith that Windows XP is more secure than Mac OSX can run their computer connected to the Internet for five years with no virus scanner, no spyware scanner, and no add-on firewall (do you know anyone who does this?) and let's see who fares better at the end of that five year period. You can, of course, install all the recommended patches provided by your OS provider.
