Its not a guess. The OS's were fingerprinted and infection rate verified by Kapersky.

Not only is BackDoor spreading far and fast, the botnet going to be used to infect more Macs - this is just the beginning. The platform and userbase are an undeniably easier target; due in no small part to years of user mis-education and a general lack of protections in the OS and maturity of defenses. The command-and-control can load whatever it wants now onto the already infected clients.

How many people here fail to even run anti-virus software?
