The fact of the matter is that the LARGE majority of people using computers are using Microsoft operating systems. (Something like 98%) Now if you were wanting to write a virus... who would you go for? the 98% or the 2%?... exactly. This argument just pisses me off when I hear it, being that I know how to program, and am currently working towards my certification in Security+ (which covers all types of computer security), and go to school for this type of stuff. It's just one of those situations where people talk and really don't know what they are talking about.
Hey, yeah a lot of ppl talk but don't understand what they are actually saying, lol.

Glad to hear you are getting Security+ cert, that's awesome, it's a tough course but you sound like you've been in the field for a little bit. best of luck on it.

Still workin on bach for IT. Work on classified networks and security in the Air Force.
