Mac and Linux aren't really all ***THAT*** much more secure, but
(theoretically) easier to harden.  I think that the OS theory is very
valid.  Microsoft is already virtually irrelevant in the mobile realm,
attacking the OS is the next logical step.

Also, I wonder how much of this is connected to the pullout from China,
since that was a security related thing too...
