Is it just me or do none of these links work? Mind you, do I really want to read something from IDG... the people behind ComputerWorld??

Part 3 - Security....
Palease.......
As usual, it completely tosses reality out the window.
I don't care what system has what. The are FAR FAR fewer reported cases of ACTUAL INFECTIONS on Mac's than PC's.
I do not remove spyware from an estimated 25 Mac's a month like I do PC's. In fact, in 20 years, I have never had to remove spyware from a Mac. NEVER.
Yes, there were a few very, very rare virus incidents on the Mac, most back in the early/mid 90's. Mostly that well known desktop database infection that everyone knew about.
CAN the Mac be infected? Sure. But reality is reality. Mac's simply do not have an issue with it at this time.
P.S. I own NO Mac's, so don't bother calling me a fanboy :)
