Who writes this stuff? More honest articles on the subject have clearly pointed out that the mac survived the first 2 days with no one being able to successfully hack it. They then changed the rules until they were able to find a way to hack it using a booby-trapped website and a java script expliot.
This is not indicative of the insecurity of the Mac OS, this is indicative of the fear mongering of irresponsible web reporters. OS 9 had a small market share but there were at least a few viruses for it. OSX has a larger marketshare but has no known viruses in the wild. This, to me, is a clear example of how the small market share myth is false.
