   But they were only cashed out from MtGox today. So he could have done it earlier, but only did it today. At least that's how I read it.

    That's incorrect. Having >50% of the hashing power gives you a good chance to double-spend your own coins, but you will never be able to steal money from someone else's wallet without doing a transaction with them. Edit: Let me clarify,

    Last.fm was sold to CBS in 2007. It also has lots of legacy client apps on many different platforms to support - I doubt that's something Apple would want to do.

    Next sentence: "That’s thanks to built-in defenses in Mac OS X that keep you safe, without any work on your part." I guess they should be "thanking" the general incompatibility with Windows binaries.
