A virus will propagate on a MAc, one only needs to spend lthe time to develop the software, but why waste you time to attack 6 machines.

And there you have it - why spend the enormous effort to develop a Mac virus when it's so much easier to make a Windows one?

Admit it - your claim that most hackers are Mac users is stupid, and absurd.

"Admit it - your claim that most hackers are Mac users is stupid, and absurd."

Friend of mine who works for Apple at their Elk Grove - Laguna site in AppleCare says most Apple users are stupid and absurd.

I've turned down three offers from Apple to work at that facility and I don't regret it. They have layoffs with the change of seasons.

They may not be a dying firm, but they are far from being a healthy firm.

And if, in the highly unlikely event they get a significant market share, their business practices make them ripe for an anti-trust suit. Apple actually does the things Microsoft was accused of - it's just Apple is insignificant in terms of market share.

If Apple belly-ups tommorow Apple owners are hosed. Packard-Bell owners can still buy PC parts of the shelf at Fry's. Hell, I can get stuff for my TR-80 and my Altair at Fry's.

But my Lisa sits darkened without hope because Apple will not license parts they don't make anymore.
