Having a Mac is like living in Mayberry. We keep our doors unlocked, our windows open and our sheriff doesn't carry a gun. Who would want to attack us? Mayberry is too damn small for it to make it any fun for the bad guys. They prefer LA (aka Windows). Over there, you have to have your doors bolted, bars on your windows, and a 45 under your bed.
And besides, if security ever does become an issue in the Mac world, OSX is a certified UNIX build. How hard could it possibly be to port the security from BSD or Linux? I'm thinking a recompile of the source code would be in order. So... I ain't worried.
