But all you need to do is turn on your firewall, don't click any links or open email from people you don't know. Don't download and run executable files that you don't know anything about. Turn off VB scripting in any apps that support it. Setup your router to use WPA and only let your machines access that router using access control lists and you're good to go.

Are you sure that's "All you have to do?"

That's hysterical.

Tell that to my brother and you've sold him a Mac.

I'm not sure that would stop spyware either. I think you still need to buy some antivirus software and download spyware removal tools.

Here's what you have to do on a Mac.

Nothing.

And there are tons of other stuff. Partitioning. Dual booting. Better usability. Stabilty is not a HUGE problem on PCs like it used to be but Macs are still more stable. How about this: Install a hard drive on your own computer without permission from Microsoft. WOAH!
