i'm also running linux....even got my lab to convert over completely.....we are quite happy using open office and no one ever knows that we aren't making native MS documents.... but i beg to differ about the "why: of all of the attacks....yes linux (and all open source by its nature) is more "adaptable" to threats...more secure? yes...because of tht adaptability and rapid response. but the reason that no one writes malicious code against the open source world in large part has to do with the fact that it wouldn't make the headlines that attacking MS products does. it all boils down to attention seeking, in my opinion.
