Finding what you want the story to say.

In the story the hacker says "I use A MacBook all the time and that's WHAT (not why) I used in the contest to attack the MacBook Air". All that tells us is that he uses A MacBook, not he only uses Mac. Even if that were the case any of the windows or Linux hackers would be proficient in the OS they were attacking.

He also says,"Every time I look for [a flaw in Leopard] I find one. I can't say the same for Linux or Windows." which clearly shows he hacks all three OS's.
