There's plenty of blame to go around - and Microsoft is far from innocent. While Apple may top someone's list of "vulnerability counts" what matters to hackers is the probability of a successful exploit.
1) There are far more Windows machines than Apple based ones.
2) There are still many unpatched Windows machines
3) There are still many holes left unpactched with new holes coming every day to Windows
4) It's not just the OS anymore but applications like Flash
Why did Willie Sutton rob banks? "Because that's where the money is."
Why do hackers target Windows machines? "Because that's where the holes are." :)
I've been running a Linux based desktop for a long time.
And - when possible - I make my kids do the same. :)
