Being chatting in an IRC room, and we got to the point of discussing virii. According to the people in the IRC room(which are very competent when it comes to computers, btw), the only reason there aren't as many virii for Linux as there are for Windows is because people don't use it as much.
My reply to this was that Linux dosn't have as many serious security holes in it as M$ does.
I don't think you know much of anything at all about either styles of OS to even bother to talk about it.

First off don't get things confused, im sure what they meant was compaired to a windows OS there is a very large lack in the rate of idiotic home users. The number of home users is still smaller but to say that "not many people have it around blah blah" is pure bullshit though. If that where true then what about the billions of servers running off an *.nix OS? Pull your head out of your ass for a moment :rolleyes:
