I once cleaned a virus off my dad's computer and warned him about the dangers of opening strange attachments. I immediately get hit again with notices of the same virus from his computer. His answer "I wanted to see what it would look like". It looked a lot like me buying him a Mac for Christmas. I know Macs aren't a magic pill against ever getting a virus but it has made supporting my dad (and everyone else in the family) a lot easier.
