Apparently the MacOS box they've set up has been slashdotted to death, but they're basically claiming the ZDNet article that said MacOS X could be h4x0r0r0r0r00reDDDDddd in 30 minutes was false.

there's a difference between hacking a box that some dude sets up purposely to be more secure, and what an everyday user will have hosing their system up.

There's also a difference in giving someone a basic user account, having them up their permissions and someone brute-forcing their way in.
