Yes for the most part, but it's not that simple, it never is. Your statement is like saying that hydrogen cars won't blow up because the Hindenburg didn't have a gas tank. The fact is that the new Mac OS has now radically been changed. By nature it functions in a brand new way. I've read on other Mac forums where viruses WILL now be an issue with the new Macs, or at least it will be MUCH easier for the virus makers to exploit the new Mac OS. Mac now shares the same processor technology that Windows uses. Time will tell what else they share. That said, I do hope that you're right and I'm wrong. At this time I don't think the verdicts out yet...
