bashing the king for all the wrong reasons

You can rant all day about how great your Mac is but the fact still remains writing a virus for Macs (or linux) would be pointless and there aren't enough of them on the net for it to be able to effectively spread.

I could go on all day about the things I absolutely hate about Microsoft's software, but I'm not going to make things up to make them look bad.

FACT: Windows is inherently less secure than other OS's for a number of reasons.

MYTH: The only reason virus writers target windows is it's inherently poor security design.

Go ahead and keep trying to educate us on why marketshare isn't the reason why viruses target windows. I'll be sure to keep laughing.
