illusion of security
Point to any significant number of users affected by any mac
security problem.
You're all gas dude.

Note I also don't know of any XP SP2 users getting nailed either

Is the world that boing that theoretical exploits get such press
coverage? There certainly seems to be some jealousy-driven get
apple campaigns going in.
