That excuse is used a lot, but not true. There are more macs than linux systems, unix systems, etc. Yet those have viri that spread in the wild. Macs make up more than 15% of all home computers.
The truth is the Mac is better made. I am sure someday a virus may get out.
Really is PC users were better learned and Windows was more secure, there would be fewer viruses.
But right now, if you are sick of crashes and viruses and spyware, its simple, get a Mac and save that $40 to $60 a year to "subscribe" to anti-virus software and use it for fun!
