Apple is starting to gain steam with a larger share of the computing devices; thus, they will soon become victims of the more skilled hackers. //@Anonymous: I use both Apple and windows products but Apple is more stable less vulnerable to rogue software or viruses windows has updated every 2 months

Like MacBooks but annoyed when they stop supporting OS updates and that flows into being stuck with old applications and if programming for iOS old versions of XCode and no support for newer devices.
