the only reason macs didn’t get attacked was because they weren’t popular enough to justify it. This is a natural progression as more and more people start to use macs more malware, viruses, and everything else will start hitting them. And considering the lack of any computer skills shown by most of the mac users I know its fertile ground.
Apple will actually benifit from this I think. Everytime someone gets a virus the mac store can charge a hundred bucks to clean the system. And considering the prices of those computers the users seem to have ample money to throw away.
Tens of millions of arrogant/smug/(insert slur here) mac users out there for years, and now we hit the tipping point? Really?
I, for one, am glad the Iranian nuclear program was smart enough to see thru the whole 'mac' facade and save some coin.
