Actually it is.............

My older son graduated college a year ago as a programmer.
(a VERY good one at that he is moving to downtown SF now)

And as he told me. If Mac's were as popular as PC's, they would
get attacked just as much.
These people are out after an audiance, and PC's give them the biggest
audiance possible.....

Or as one of hacker friends told me, they do it for fun, and the fun is
geting to the most machines possible in the shortest time possible.......
(same kid who told me that they hack computers for fun, and because
they CAN... When I told him I could beat his ass, because I can,
so why shouldnt I, he had no answer.... I told him it would be great fun
too, he didnt like that.............. Little rat bastards these hackers
are.....)


These people could care less about brand names, they are after
as big a target audiance as possible, and Windows operating
systems givem them just that !


Mac's are no safer to PC's except for the fact there are so FEW of
them compared to PC's, that hackers who want attention go to
where the people are.............................
And hackers who want $$ go after PC's as that is what financial
institutions use almost exclusively.
