Where are you finding this incorrect information? In Microsoft propaganda?
LOL no experience!
The nr. 1 thing that spreads viruses/malware today is not the OS, but the person behind the keyboard and mouse. Apple products have gone over the threshold need for makers of malware and viruses to give a damn, and Apple users are totally unprotected and unaware of the dangers because of this idiotic Apple mantra of "Apple is safe" crap.
You didn't source your claim. You're speculating/talking out your ass.
We have been using a Mac at my business for desktop publishing for close to four years now. Not one issue.
My son has been using a Macbook Pro at college (two years now), no issues.
I'll go with what works best for me. You go with what's best for you. Enjoy your multiple virus', blue screens, lockings, and all the other woes association with MS Windows.
I have been using Windows 7 for the same amount of time and no issues.... Before that I used Windows XP and also have very few problems during the 7 years of its life.
And no I am not speculating or talking out of my ass.. Most Windows users never experience a virus or malware, because they are told from the start to protect themselves. And when they do experience something it is 99% of the time their own damn fault for clicking and saying yes to things they should not be clicking and saying yes too.
Now Mac users have grown up with the false illusion they were immune to viruses and malware and hence are not aware about the many methods that the hackers uses to trick you. On top of that most dont have software to protect them. Now that there are more and more users of Mac, the hackers are finally paying attention to the brand and are targeting as we have seen over and over the last few years.
Feel free to stick your head in the ground but the threat is very real regardless what OS you use.. nothing is secure and the biggest threat to your pc is yourself.
