there is that. still, over the last 15 years or so, I have seen a vastly
higher number of windows machines infected by "defective users". repairing
those installations was always a nightmare (especially when the user wanted to
retain all data). in all that time, I saw, at most, a handful of macs with an
issue involving malware.  Now that the iOS and OS X platforms are starting to
acquire a majority of the market, I expect there to be a lot more problems
(and also see a greater number of those defective users).

anyway, the users are primarily responsible for their systems. if they can't
handle it, the n they need to sell off the machine and start collecting books.
until they do, I continue to make a small amount of money over their panic.
