It goes into a bit of detail, but I think it should be understandable by most non-geeks with a good level of computer literacy.

This is not to say that the Mac OS is bullet-proof, just much more resistant to malware or getting pwnd.

I could repost that link to my journal. But that would invite my bf's father to go nuts. Showing it to people at work, though, might be worth it.

"Oh, I have a Mac."
That's nice. That automatically makes you a person who knows little about computers in my mind. (Yes, I'm an evil Windows-loving elitist wench.)
"I don't get viruses."
I know how to protect myself, thanks.
"But you have to download extra software!"
Uh huh. And? I know the risks and I can handle my own computing, thank you.
