It would make sense that people would make viruses for computers that are more used than other computers that have less software and applications out there (Macs).

yes, but macs are becoming more common and there are quite a few viruses out there for them.

KK,
That's right, more viruses will be out there for MACs.  I guess the bad guys/girls out there who make viruses target a computer that is more used and has more applications than one that is not (Mac).  I go to any software store and see aisles of software for PC while Macs would have half of one aisle, pretty sad.  I am sticking with PCs.  So far, my PC computer has not given me a single problem when it comes to viruses.
