No, they aren't. What Macs are is simply not targeted, because there are
(relatively speaking) so few of us Mac users. A truly nasty virus could
be written for Macs just as easily as for Windex boxes, and I'm sure one
of these days we'll see it happen - especially if the combined efforts
of Steve Jobs and the Apple marketing team actually manage to increase
their market share to some significant number.

Kind of depressing, actually - like you'll know you're REALLY popular
when you catch a case of the clap...
