    Huh? Don't take it so personal. There's nothing in the article that blames Mac users.

    Serious, every mac user in the world does the *happy mac dance* when a new virus outbreak sets, there is no crime in that 8)

    Where did 'we' get "slammed"?

    And message boards buzzed with anti-Microsoft comments, including "I hope they hack the hell out of it" and "I'm so glad I have a Mac."



    That is the only references I could see, and that hardly rates on my radar.

    ok well the way i read it was that 'mac users rejoiced when the windows code got leaked because now hackers can take down MS, and MS is the devil. they didnt HAVE to mention "i'm glad i'm using a mac."

    I don't understand, up til now hackers seem to have been very successful without the source code.

    I doubt anyone will notice the difference.

    imagine trying to break into an old castle in the dark vs. with blueprints.



    that's the difference this makes.
