The results of the poll tell the story as to why there are no Mac viruses. Less than 25% of respondants, so far, have Macs. There's so little a market on them that it's not worth a "decent" hacker's time. Ah bootcamp, the best way to buy a pc when you don't want to say you have one...

I'd say an Intel Mac is probably closer to a PC, than a Mac. After all, if the vulnerability to viruses is in the actual software, it doesn't matter what hardware you're running it on.
