Well, it seems that Apple’s advertising campaign concerning its ‘superior’ security –aka the impervious Operating System, is slowly being exposed for the real red herring it is.

The facts are, if you build it they will come, including the ones you wish would stay at home...
Apple, not unlike the ancient Romans, is discovering that there are always chinks in armour, and those that study us, learn quickly how to exploit them.

He describes the reliability of the basic system and goes on to explain that although it is a personal computer, it did nothing that you could actually see without an external monitor of some kind (to which he proudly announces that he built on his own using electronic addon components).
