Have I really not been here since last year?

Looks like I have neglected my blog.
Never mind.

Big news story: Apple Mac have had a skirmish with some malware.

The doom and gloom people (Translation: The people who sell anti-virus software) have been predicting that the Mac platform will drown under a tsunami of malware any day now, and this is just start.

Well they have been saying that for ten years and I am still waiting.
Truth is that a Mac malware is so rare that it makes headline news.
A Windows attack is so common no one notices.

There has been one attack per year since OS X was launched, so that about 12 items.
Windows runs at 12 Million and counting.

Draw your own conclusions.

Meanwhile Apple have patched the problem so it’s business as usual.
