Hah! True enough, but once Macs build up some wider consumer support, do they really think virus makers and hackers aren’t going to focus more on that platform? It’s no secret - though it’s wisely ignored - that the main reason the Mac is deemed more secure is simply because the market share of the Mac isn’t big enough yet for hackers and virus makers to bother focusing on it.
On a side note, there’s no apostrophe in PCs and Macs. :)

It is rather strange to talk about the number of programs available on a Mac or Windows platform, as most people do not get any further then using Microsoft Office.
So comparing Macs and Windows PCs is like comparing Mercedes with Cadillac. They are both cars, but you buy a Mercedes or a Cadillac because the differences you like, not because a Cadillac has more roads to drive on.
[...] Ik blijf dit dus een belachelijke discussie vinden. Ten eerste gebruik ik al die software die ze voor Windows hebben gemaakt niet. Ten tweede is de Mac niet virus vrij. Ten derde koop ik een computer niet omdat de meeste andere mensen er eentje hebben, maar omdat het een apparaat is waarmee ik meer kan, dan alleen maar bijvoorbeeld nietjes schieten. En wat maakt het nu eigenlijk uit, welk besturingssysteem je koopt. Met alleen het besturingssysteem is je PC een mooie wandversiering of een extra zware boekensteun. Dus koop gewoon wat het beste voldoet aan jou wensen en niet wat je buurman heeft of je jongste broer. Maar laat je wel goed informeren over hoe je veilig gebruik kunt maken van je PC. Want of je nu een Mac OS, Windows, Linux of welk ander besturingssysteem ook koopt, je zult er rekening mee moeten houden, dat het allemaal mensenwerk is. En bij mensenwerk kunnen er fouten gemaakt worden. [...]
