Now to count the amount of smack talked
I totally agree with rbert that Windows has more flaws than anything else out there, but then again, Windows *is* the most prominent OS out there and as such the most targeted.

What I don't agree on is rbert calling Windows/Linux/Whatever-users zaelots now, just because we have something on Macs now.

Everytime something took a jab at a secflaw in Windows, you'd have hundreds of Mac-users go; "Ooooohhh look at us, we use Macs, we own you and your flawed Windows, we don't get spy/mal/adware or hackers...",

We all had a choice of OS and most of us chose Windows and some of you went for Linux or Mac, fine. At least some of us respected each other's choice and didn't go smug, high and mighty when something hit another OS.

So let's do the math here... Which users are the real zealots??? Wake up, Mac-users!
