Not to brag or anything...

But I use my Mac for general internet and e-mail (Macbook Pro), and I would recommend one for any person who does plenty of online stuff that involves passwords etc.

Remember, Macs are more or less virus free. There is one, maybe two somewhere around, but they would be on those very naughty sites that Flight Simmers tend to avoid... Unless, they happen to feature aircraft specifically

Ah you see, thats the trouble. Most modern virus live in the browser code so it doesn't matter if you use Windows, Mac or Linux, they want your passwords / details and steel them when you type them into the browser. Even Apple strongly recommend you get an Anti Virus product for your Mac.

Interesting stat i read (I think it was ZDnet last year) as percentage of computer population, more details are stolen via malicious websites from Apple devices than any other.

I'd get some AV
