Seems like there's a lot more vuln with OSX in the last few releases.
I'm still using OSX for basic stuff like browsing but I rely on a linux VM to do the serious stuff. I know that my vm can be compromised if the host system is vulnerable but I feel safer.
- mikeokner 11y agoI ended up just installing Arch on my MacBook. Runs surprisingly well. I'm able to share my home dir since its on a second partition, so I didn't really have to start from scratch. I haven't booted into OS X in weeks.
- acdha 11y agoHave you considered how much of that might be due to Apple's takeover of the consumer space? There were fewer people looking for exploits and even fewer reporters covering them before they became the OS of choice for hundreds of millions of people. If you believe Linux is that much better, well, you really ought to follow your distribution's security announcement list. Nobody in the general computing space has a track record which entitles them to cast aspersions at the competition.
