Let's start with ZDNet's Adrian Kingsley-Hughes, who says , who may also be (OK, he didn't say that last part).

I'm truly staggered by the fact that people who have been around computers for decades and who are supposedly keeping their finger on the tech pulse are still clinging on for dear life to the notion that Mac is somehow immune of invulnerable to modern malware.

And the Macalope is staggered by people who assume those not running around with their hair on fire must be dangerous loonies with weird, made-up beliefs.

John Gruber, the guy behind the Mac site Daring Fireball says that those who dare to suggest that there's a problem are crying wolf.

OK, Adrian, since you want to discuss allegories, let's look at yours.
