The point of the comment was that the main reason that we haven't seen wider exploitation of Mac vulnerabilites is that, for the most part, NO ONE CARES.
Now, there's a reason why Macs own the market share that they do, and I'm sure that you'll think of it if you really, really try.
Meanwhile, as an exercise for the reader, there's this:
Most amazing spin on Mac vulnerabilities ever!
For those of us who make all or part of our living dealing with security issues, the smug self-assurance of Mac bigots is certainly amusing. And no one will be more dismayed when their false sense of security is shattered once someone decides to have a go at their previously sacred domain. And that's fine by me. There's be good money to be made cleaning up the wreckage and consoling the victims. Former Norton and McAfee users know exactly what I'm talking about.

Bigotry is usually a function of the MAJORITY to a MINORITY, not the other way around.
In the last quarter, Apple's Market Share climbed from 4.7% the previous years similar quarter to 6.2% of computer sold in the US. However, that is only the reported SALES
in any specified period. When various magazines such as Consumers Reports, Popular Science, etc, have done scientific surveys of computer Users, they have found that approximately 14% of them are using Macs. Part of the reason for this is the reported useful life-span of Macs which is 2 to 3 time longer than Windows machines. Another explanation for this "Market share" v. "Users" discrepency is that many of the Windows PCs sold do not have a specified "user" but are being used in control applications, dedicated single purposes, etc.
25,000,000 OSX users are hardly to be ignored... especially when the demographics show that they are generally wealthier than the average computer user and are more likely to spend money on line or do other financial activities on line.
As to the BLOG you linked to... Secunia reports an OSX vulnerability when Apple reports an improvement in any of the underlying UNIX applications. Being open source, ALL UNIX vulnerabilities are reported. Microsoft does NOT report hidden vulnerabilities in their proprietary applications until they are "discovered" and reported by someone outside Microsoft.
Although many of these Unix applications are either turned off or not- implemented in OSX, Apple reports the vulnerabilities and provides the fixes and updates in any case.
Now, there's a reason why Macs own the market share that they do, and I'm sure that you'll think of it if you really, really try.
Instead of us "really, really trying" why don't you just tell us what you think it is?
So, you work at the mall wearing a rentacop suit?
