Apple Drops 'We Don't Get PC Viruses' Schtick

Apple has made a small change to a Mac marketing webpage that is a big deal to people who care about computer security. We're talking about the "Why you'll love a Mac" webpage. For the past couple of years, Apple has claimed that the Mac "doesn't get PC viruses," adding that "a Mac isn?t susceptible to the thousands of viruses plaguing Windows-based computers." That's a tough one to argue with. After all, Windows software doesn't work on the Mac operating system. But now, it's a claim that Apple doesn't seem comfortable making anymore.
