[Bubba Ho-Tep]

If someone gets their rocks off writing malicious code, they are going to write it for the most popular platform so it spreads as far and as quickly as it can

As I believe swordmaker pointed out on another thread, someone wrote a virus that infects iPods rigged to run Linux, of which there probably aren't enough to break five figures. The "obscurity" excuse just doesn't work when there are viruses for far smaller user bases.

Well, I guess it depends on the purpose the author of the virus had in mind...doesn't it? A little known thing that people fail to keep in mind when discussing things such as this. So what you are saying is because it hasn't been done means it can't be done...... HMMMM?
