Honestly, I don't remember the last time I had a virus with a PC, though I do use freeware like Spybot and AdAware quite frequently to keep my PC in good condition (at least from spyware), and use Firefox rather than IE. Its reminiscent of Toyota quality vs Domestic garbage, in my opinion. So long as you want to believe it, its true. Maybe mac's are a bit more inherently safe. But mostly it comes down to the fact that virus makers attack what is most popular, because it causes the most damage and fills that little void in their life that they can't find else where while in their parents basement at 4:00am. And as long as I don't go to animalorgy.com (I sure hope thats not a real website), download a 'free PC virus scan' (read 'free PC virus'), open up that 'cheap meds' email (I'm in Canada, meds are already cheap), or the link that someone who I haven't talked to in 3 years sent (was always suspicious of Bob anyway), I think I will be fairly safe. If not, there's numerous anti-virus software's out there for under $40.
Graphical capabilities, I'll concede. They are better at that. Style? A plastic box with a screen is a plastic box with a screen as far as I'm concerned. Colours and large radius beveled corners/edges don't impress me that much.
