People don't attack the Macs, because they make up something like 4% of computers out there.

Yep, but the increasing hubris of Mac users is making them an increasingly attractive ego target for hackers. Most virus writers/hackers go for the biggest bang (the 90% of the PC market that Windows enjoys). Some like the challenge of knocking a small, arrogant user group off of their perch.
