This is one of several writers that have recommended the mac strictly because of the security issues. AT&T is studying the issue to see if they should go with a linux box or macosx. No matter whose fault it is, people who are getting tired of the security issues may just take a look at a mac.

As to the expense, people for whom the iMac may be too expensive may just go with an emac. If you look at what you get with the emac, it is a pretty neat machine for the price. It is an inexpensive way to get into digital media because it has all the software you need on it and you don't have to add anything else. Not even security software. How much does that cost over the 3 years of use that never seems to get added into the cost of running the machine? The iMac is a pretty neat machine and overall, I don't think it is too expensive for what you get but that is just my opinion.
