a tool can be open to abuse?
who would of thought it. Of course its not true.
Morons.

As OS X increases in popularity, people will figure out vulnerabilities. It's bound to happen sooner or later ... a zero-day vuln that someone exploits...
I purchased a Mac for exactly the reason that it's safer than Windows ... not because it is 100% safe. But I did believe at that time that I wouldnt need antivirus...
Sucks !
harshw, the most "functionally complete" minority OS i've ever used is RISC OS on the acorn.
It has VERY little market share, ever. It has anti-virus software for the nasty programs out there.
But its not designed well from a security point of view, its far, far to easy for one program, to interfere with another and the kernel.
The problem is apple has long ignored this, their ad campaigns went to further this myth.

and imo cases from silverstone et al are better looking anyways.
Not to turn this into a debate but ...
I like the Apple style and form. On the other hand, I think Windows Explorer is better than Finder.
I like the fact that installing and de-installing apps on OS X is so much easier than on Windows. On the other hand, doing stuff out of the ordinary is even more arcane than doing it on Linux
So OSX has its good and bad points, I think it is as good as Vista, I dont see any one of them being clearly superior than the other
And yes, there are computers out there far better looking than Macs
Matter of opinion really. I too prefer MacOSX interface as i have a macbook pro but i know dozens of people who disagree. Now they cant boast the non virus aspect (not that they ever really could in all fairness) thats another notch off their superiority chart.
Seems to me that it depends which line of work you are in, office type people, gamers and custom build enthusiasts prefer windows but media type people tend to prefer macs. I dont claim this to be fact just what i seen so far.
Far better looking, again a matter of opinion and i would tend to agree. I think macs look realy cool, and whilst there may be better tower cases than the powermac is there any integrated systems such as the Imac or any of the laptop range which even come cose to apples style?
Emulating EFI - only reason you would do that is if you where to run OSX on your PC hardware which is actually illegal. Otherwise it still has to run through bios to do the same thing anyway.
