The obvious interest of McAffee and Norton is to scare Mac users into buying anti-virus products....the problem is, there are no such threats out there for OSX. They're trying to scare users by saying it could happen...buy our stuff NOW.

I've heard Norton's stuff for the Mac described as Malware more than once. Don't buy the hype.

Buy their products now, so you can protect your computer from attacks tomorrow.

But when the attack happens, the version you have is too old to protect you and your data, and so you have to shell out another $50 for the upgrade, a chunk of change for a subscription to their incremental updates, and multiply that by the number of computers you own or have to protect.
