if you put java on it, you get your problem. So the issue is java. I suppose that too fine a point for most to bother with. 

So I can run Java on my homebuilt quad-core w 8GB ram PC and Apple users cannot? I spent a grand total of $160 last Christmas on memory, motherboard and CPU while Apple buyers (read suckers) pay thousands for machines that will get infected if they run Java. What a scam

You're entitled to your opinion. But hurling personal insults at other FReepers is not permitted. Why not cool it and just discuss the topic, instead of trolling? It's not like you're making your point any better for all the crap names you throw around.

Yep, unlike your machine which is totally invulnerable, in fact you can run millions of free viri and trojans at no extra cost to you. Sigh..... if only I could do that on my Mac.
