Thanks for the feedback

Firstly I'd like to thank Graeme for replying to my comment, it's good to know you guys are listening :)

I wish it wasn't the case but time and time again ZDNET articles on any potential OS X flaws are dramatised to the extreme. I'd just like to see less drama and more reasonable articles on all non-windows platforms.

How about an article comparing the number and frequency of Windows/MS flaws against OS X? I'd like to see a graph of windows viruses and malware v's Apple's for example...! Something an uneducated user can look at and get a reasonable, balanced view of the differences in security and stability of the two rivals.

Going on your headline you'll lead users to believe that potential flaws such as this are in the same league as some of the big all-timers in windows, this just isn't the case....
