hehehe, maybe cause Mac's are about 10% of the market share and the virus-writers like to hit as many people as possible?

Actually, thats not the only or even best reason. Say I have a Mac and I have a virus sent to me by email, I can guarantee that the chances of another member on my email address book having a Mac is pretty low so the virus would stop at me.
Video below is NOT for the kiddies...sorry just noticed this.

That video is very, very old. That is a G3 iMac and a G4 PowerMac, and hes talking about OS 9. Very old technology that was out back in 95ish probably. We're now using G5 iMacs and PowerMacs running OS X (10.4.2). It was probably made by some diehard Windoze fan whos job is an editor and he used macs. Funny i never have anything lock up on my mac
