How come Macs never get viruses?

The "gentlemen", who are programming viruses & trojans, are concentrating on the clear market leader Windows.


It's just that Apple has a 3 % market share with computers (6 % in the US) but a 0.0001 % market share with malware. Macs must be safer, at least compared to the average Windows machine.


That makes no logical sense at all.

If something has a 75% chance of working and a second option has a 25% chance of working... and everyone knows those odds... you expect 25% of people to go with the 25% chance of something working... just because?

People are going to go VERY disproportionatly towards the better option just cause.

The only people I see making apple virus software are PC fanboys and virus makers who are pissed off at Apples "we have no virus'" campaign.
