This one is pretty interesting

For me to actually get a virus (I cannot since apple released a bunch of security updates for the above, plus the built in firewall works well), I actually have to think it is a piece of software I want to actually install (I have to type in my username and password, hit continue a few times, and click on the hard drive I want to install to). I think this is very different from just opening a sketchy .exe file.

I'll take anything UNIX based over windows ANY day. Don't get me wrong, Windows works very well when it is NOT plugged into a network.
