Or maybe the MacBook Air was the most desired piece of hardware which was part of the prize? Not mention it was after they changed the rules to allow browser access to pre-crafted malicious websites and there doesn't seem to be any reports on if the second person of the days attempt was successful or the third, the fourth, the fifth... or any other platform was targeted or they just closed it down once the glamour of cracking another Apple product was achieved which was probably the purpose of the dog n pony show they had.

What's with all the Mac and Apple bashing in my Linux RSS feed lately?

This is bashing how??? Just because mac was the first to fall? Wonder if it would have been bashing had it been linux or windows first. The article said all three survived the first day. The article said the rules were relaxed for all three. One fell. The article said the rules would be relaxed again today (Friday) - for all three. The article said it was expected that all three were expected to fall in the end. Linux could easily be next just by virtue of having third party software becoming part of the attack vectors and that platform having more of it on board by default (at least compared to vista). Sounds like sour grapes.
