This angle is really tired. Don't you think if someone were going to write some massive doomsday virus that takes out all the macs (like you PC guys dream about), it would have been done by now? And if it happens to happen in the future, don't you think it will be dealt with?

I hear this angle all the time, yet it doesn't bother you that PCs get nailed 24/7 with that crap. You are obviously the exception if you've never had any malware, spyware, trojans, virii, etc.... and I'm willing to bet that you've probably got some malware/spyware on your shit right now that you don't even know about.
