I wonder if that is the sort of thinking that the last Lemming thinks as it jumps over the cliff to a watery death below. I dont know if it is but I do know that is exactly the thinking of the people I do work for when I firt turn up at their businesses. Eg, the company next door and the people I know dont see a need for a virus program to protect THEIR A$200 windows boxes so why should I shell out US$35 to protect my >A$500,000 a year business when it is obvious things would come to a grinding halt for at least a couple of days if my hard disks minus any reasonable backup were wiped? I dont tell them "expect the unexpected". I point out the name of a competitor and ask who they would rather be in the lead -themselves or the competitor then point out weaknesses and why "Lemming thinking" leads to death.
