The works of Mr Dino A. Dai Zovi has created much of a swirl around mac community, especially in the security arena. He found a vulnerability and won $10K, and more than that won fame and glory. Even Mr Gruber who admonished many claims of mac vulnerabilities in the past, was forced to accept the 0-day vulnerability as legitimate.
At the same time, Matthew Bookspan clearly demonstrated his IQ, or rather lack of it, by deleting his /usr folder to render his system inoperative and then blaming apple to be less intuitive. (Found via DF)
