windows? Sure. But I think the reason why that is so is
misunderstood by
most mac users. The spread of this misinformation doesn't do
anyone any
good. It's become a knee jerk reaction from mac users when talked
to about
security to just recite the mantra 'we are more secure'. All I
hope for is
a little intellectual honesty about the topic and less kool-aid.
