'There is no one true OS. Each has their advantages and their floors. OS-X suits me at home and Linux suits me for my development work. I use XP on the rare occasions I play games'

I dont agree 100% with the choice of OS but thank god for some sanity amongst the flames. There is no truly secure OS, once a computer is turned on its vulnerable, never mind connected to network. OSX and Linux (by the nature of their roots) are inherently slightly more secure platforms but NOT bullet proof. Regardless of the OS used we each make a decision about relative security when we connect to the Internet, for some XP is the right balance between security and usability and for others its not.
