if you go with a mac, you have to buy a new computer but if you go with linux, you can use your existing computer...
but before you do, you might as well try live knoppix cd or dsl-linux first as these two doesn't need to be installed. you just have to put in the cd and boot from it. that way, you'll have a first hand experience as what linux is all about...
if you want ease of use, go for a mac...
as far as security is concerned, i believe linux and mac are secured right out of the box...

I have tried Ubuntu, Kanotix, Kill Bill, Fedora Core4, White Box, DSL, Morphix, RH, Suse, Slax, Knoppix & Gentoo 2005.1 but I love Linux Puppy best of all...
I run puppy from from a CD, load it to RAM and save all my sessions to the same CD.... Try it! You'll love it!
