You are a hard headed ignoramus. Give it up already. Macs can and do get infected on
a much smaller rate than PC's but they do get infected. Advertising by Apple even
HINTING that they do not is not right. It is worded on the Mac page as to sound they
are not is a very clever marketing ploy and the way it is put forward to the public
sounds different . But if you any resemblance of intelligence then you can read
between the lines in the advertising that it is not the case completely as presented


One of many links that touch on Mac's and viruses
http://antivirus.about.com/od/macint..._Resources.htm

Using Bing as your search engine type in Mac and viruses and you will have
75,800,000 results confirming what you are squawking against
