In your closet, behind the winter coats.
Your Mac's Specs
13.3" MacBook Intel Core Duo 2GHz, 60GB HD, 512MB DDR2, and the SuperDrive.
Everything is going to have it's security loopholes. The fact that Apple plugged some of the major ones is definitely a good sign. I would think that Apple would want to fund the MOAB project indefinitely just to get a better idea of security issues as they arise. With Macs becoming ever more popular, it's only a matter of time before more fastidious malware manufacturers begin to target our beloved machines.
