Hii Scott,
like magnus said, it is nice to have you hear. (pun intended)
I can understand your attitude.
I was once as anti-Mac as they come.

But I am sure you have never REALLY used a Mac.
Nor were you completly objective.
You list the entire list of current viruses on a Mac, why don't you do the same for the PC .
Plus all of those viruses have the least categorized threat and distribution by Symantec.
Symantec also claims a massive growth of virus activity on the Mac, we now have 3!!
How much is 3/150,000?

You are right about one thing, its downright stupid to get a Mac only to run Windows.
But the beauty in that is that you don't need to choose.

The Mac's "it just works" is how you go around to getting a life.
Yes, the Mac is very much a Harley.
It compares to it in every aspect, customer loyalty, employee loyalty, cultural impact (can u say iPod?), customer satisfaction, and user experience.
When your company commands a cult following, you're doing something right.

I'm going on my Harley now, and you can hapily use the subway.
After all its cheaper.

PS I agree your right to disagree, even without the REAL threat of a lynch mob.
