Same.

Most viruses still require some kind of an executable permission from the user, so most likely if you are getting viruses, malware/spyware etc., you are clicking stuff you should not be.

And most decent up-to-date anti-virus run real time protection, and keep you well protected.

In short, viruses are like STD's, you don't get an STD from looking at a dirty hooker, you get it from touching her.

Basically, yes. And until the majority of people have Macs - it will likely stay this way. And since Macs are $1000+ I doubt the majority of people will be getting them any time soon.

So when we all own Mac's, what will you think happens? That's right, people will design virus for Mac's. That's the one advantage of being less popular.

Some things never change. My wife convinced me we need a Mac, I struggled with the $1300 to spend on one. (I am a tight ass) but after 6 months, ill never own anything but a Mac!
 
You guys on there saying "I never get viruses on my computer" and smugly assuming it's someone else's problem: I USED TO BE JUST LIKE YOU.
