Flagged. Submitted by author, a blogpost designed to fan the flames."
First, understand that this is a blog post, a highly prejudiced thing, completely determined by one self-important person's experiences."

Actually that first paragraph was designed to defend against flames, and it appears to have worked. The piece also talks about the fog of war, as it applies to tech. Two pundits both wrote long pieces about the Mac's apparent victory over Windows, and neither mentioned malware.
Does not discuss that fact that the dominant platform will inherently encourage malware creators to write for that platform. Implies that Mac is inherently more secure with no evidence.
