EXACTLY
That was an excellent post billywill, the major reason Mac is not experiencing these problems is very plain to see, who wants to mess with small potatoes. If you go after Mac, you put in same amount of effort, but you only get to 1/10th the computers, very few of which are in large businesses etc. It is very easy to sit back and feel so smug when your system is so small and used so little it always falls under the radar of those wishing to attack others computers. Why attack Mac, hardly anyone but morons use it, or those who feel superior of no actions of their own. If the system is nothing more than a side show and is so minimal as to be practically non-existent, then it is not attacked. Why should they, is is poor returns on their efforts, there just are not enough people or businesses available on Mac to even bother, it is below them to go after. Why would anyone put their time and effort into breaking into a system that APPLE has tried their darndest to kill on their own without any input from hackers. Mac is so much of a jole to the hackers, they want to keep it, it is funny to look at the nerds feeling so safe and running a system that is about as useless as it users are.
