Bill Gates just did an interview for Newsweek. I found this quote to be interesting...

"Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine."

The reason that there isn't more press about Mac vulnerabilities is that the virus writers don't bother with hacking Macs - there isn't enough of an installed base for it to be worth their while. But since virtually everyone uses some flavor of Windows, that's the prime target. So Microsoft products get hit again and again, and their OS's get the reputation of being insecure, while Mac OS's fly serenely under the radar and are treated like the prize pig at the State Fair. Gates' point, I think, is that Microsoft is getting tough and tested from all these attacks, while Apple isn't. Gates' problem is that he is unfortunately inarticulate for a Harvard man.

Yeah, Bill's a real kidder.

Lies can be very telling about the teller, can't they?
