IBM or Mac - most susceptable to viruses?

[Joyce Rodriguez <jrodrig@GILLIGAN.ESU7.K12.NE.US>]

Most of our district is Mac but the main office runs on IBM machines.  They
recently were down for several days and found it was due to a virus.  Now
the rest of the district is wondering whether we should be more concerned
about virus protection on our Mac's.  The technology director feels Mac's
are not nearly as susceptable to a virus.
What are other people finding?  Especially those of you who run both platforms?
I haven't heard as much about viruses as I did in the my early Mac days but
maybe I need to be concerned?
Thanks for any input.
