Bzzzt. Wrong.

I've asked this question multiple times. In fact yesterday on another thread.

Pre OSX there were hundreds of Mac viruses AND their market share was smaller.

We're all those guys go?

Security thru obscurity is BS.

No OS is 100% secure but if you lock the door and leave the key in the lock you might as well leave the door open.

The real truth is MSFT had crap for security.

It could have been far more secure with a few minor concessions.

You know, like don't allow a root/superuser account to exist with no password.
