Wrong. Mac users have the false perception that they are not susceptible to viruses even though they are just as susceptible as Windows users.
Also I'll see if I can fix the wiki.
EDIT: Didn't see it was already fixed.
This is highly inaccurate, as Mac's are better, and for that reason are better.
Also, @fryingpan, no one started anything, I stated my opinion, you responding that way is what initiates those dumb arguments.
EDIT: To start some necessary flame against PC's, here's something incredibly convincing:
Don't read if you are one of those PC users who can't stand to admit the virus protection deficiency, or even hear about it.
My brother gets a PC. He goes to a website linked from Facebook, and his computer screen turns black, turns back again, and no longer can run any applications, like Internet Explorer, or Minecraft, etc.
I go to that same website, on my Mac, and it's just a blank virus infested page, none of the viruses effect my computer whatsoever.
Another time, I asked a PC user from minerealm (not saying any names) "Do you think Mac's are just as prone to viruses as PC's?" He immediately respons: "NONONONO DONT GET A PC UNLESS YOU LOVE DOING TONS OF UNNECESSARY THINGS TO KEEP IT SAFE, THINGS THAT WOULDNT BE NECESSARY ON A MAC." I asked, what could possibly happen to get this guy so angry at PC's, he said the first week he got his PC a virus scan showed 42 viruses, none of which were easily soluble.
I've never had
one problem like the aforementioned with my mac.
