Completely true statement. There may be vulnerabilities, but there hasn't been a SINGLE virus or trojan for Mac OS X yet. Zilch! This compares to tens of thousands of viruses on Windows. You may attribute that to the platform's lesser popularity, less inherent vulnerabilities, Apple's rapid security fixes or sheer luck, but if someone told you that terrorists shot down 70,000 MSAir jets, but not one MacAir jet, which would you feel safer flying? |

That's because all the PC viruses are actually written by Apple's marketing department ;)

the limit in iPhoto is said 20.000 images, but I found it to stop working normally when I was up to 10.000 images. |
25.000 images according to Apple, with Raw file support. While I still use iPhoto for my personal photos, |
the newest version of iPhoto (announced on Tuesday) can apparently handle 250 000 photos. |
