You mean beyond their skill.
99% of hackers are script kiddies. It takes serious skill to
compromise a Unix box.

Mac and Linux aren't hit because they aren't EASY to hit. It
has nothing to do with market penetration.

Hackers hack to feed their egos. There would be huge
bragging rights for bringing down an OS X box, esp. when
such an event would put headlines all over every tech
journal in the world.

Face it, Axe. Windows is an insecure operating system.
Continued denial will never get the problem solved.
