Do you actually BELIEVE what you just wrote?

Mac OSX is more secure, more stable and it's just a superior
computing experience compared to Windows. To think that the
only reason that Windows security issues have cost billions of
dollars is because it's the only OS that gets attacked is elitist
and ludicrous. You obviously know nothing about Macintosh.
Macintosh is 1000 times more secure than Windows. Yes it will
eventually get attacked, but the fact that while there are several
hundred thousand virues and worms for Windows and no viruses
and worms for Mac OSX should be proof enough that Windows is
a completely inferior operating system with not just holes to
exploit but cavernous gaps in security. Apple is making their
operating system more secure BEFORE it gets attacked, not after
billions of dollars and countless data has been lost or
compromised. No operating system is perfect but Unix based
operating systems are inherently more secure than Windows.
Apple has taken the control to make their operating system
more secure by setting the defaults so that nothing can install
itself into the system without root access. There is no use trying
to explain to many ignorant Windows users that their operating
system is not the picture of health and beuty that they have
been lead to believe. Since it is the only oprating system they
know they think all operating systems have all the problems that
Windows does and that's just not true. Windows users have been
trained to accept a lot of crap that Mac users would never put up
with since Mac users are more fickle and expect more from their
computing experience.
