I must admit that I do have a soft spot for OSX and Apple in general. I’m a designer after all. But what I can’t stand is the ignorant, narrow minded, soulless, bad jumper wearing, Steve Jobs loving, Mac Book Air F*&^ tools that believe that there over priced white box is the greatest thing since sliced bread and that just buy owning one they are above all others.

Well, an article on allheadlinenews defaintly made me chuckle;

Vancouver, British Columbia (AHN)– The Linux running on a Sony Vaio remained undefeated at the end of a three-way computer hacking challenge Friday at the CanSecWest conference.Sponsors had wagered three laptops to anyone who could hack into one of the systems and run their own software. A $20,000 cash prize sweetened the deal.

The MacBook Air went first; Independent Security Evaluators’ Charlie Miller took the Mac after about two minutes work on Thursday. Miller took home $10,000, courtesy of 3Com’s TippingPoint division, in addition to the new laptop.

After two days of work, Shane Macaulay finally cracked the tiny Fujitsu laptop running Vista on Friday, with a little help from his friends.

Two minutes I tells ya! Two MINUTES!Do you know why you believe that the MAC is more secure? Because why would anyone in their right mind try to attack something that has only 4.3% of the market! Even Vista has a bigger market share (7.6%) then OSX and it’s a dog of an OS.

Put that in your white, incredibly aesthetic pipe and smoke it!

but the myth is still there. Once it was secure, why back almost stone age, Mac OS 7. But do not tell that openly to any Mac fan - he will…

OK, maybe Mac is not _more_ secure than Windows, but it’s more userfriendly, more cool, more better (:p) and the hackers don’t wanna hack Macs…

It’s worth buying.

Josso, more cool? more better? Very descriptive.

And why don’t hackers attack macs? Becuase no one has them? (4.3%)

Don’t get me wrong, mac’s are great, but your ignorance really shows the opionions of 95% of Mac users.

And yes, it is worth buying. I’ll be getting mine this week
