Eric Schmidt is giving poor advice in an area that is far outside of his expertise. I would be surprised if he even knows what DEP and ASLR are.

You don't need to know what either of those things are to make the (correct) observation that the majority of malware targets the systems on which it'll get the most bang for its buck.

At least currently, that means targeting Windows users - solely because there are so many more of them than Apple users.
