On the other hand, I spoke at a show in Los Angeles a couple of weeks 
ago, and I played up the "no malware" angle.  

I spoke with some folks who had been in the audience, over drinks later, 
and they said that it wasn't a compelling argument for them, that they 
just run anti-viral software and that they don't have a problem with 
malware.

So, I don't know. Is malware only a problem for Windows users who are 
idiots and who don't install anti-viral software?  

If that is the case, then I would expect the same folks to be too stupid 
to be willing to switch to a different platform.  It might be too 
overwhelming a proposition for them.  They might indeed be happier 
throwing away their entire cheap piece of garbage PC and purchasing a new 
one.
