Their software and the fact that Apple not only builds the software but they also build the computer. Unlike Windows which only builds software and does not actually build the computer itself. Mac OSx does not operate like Windows. There is no registry and there has never been a real world virus infect OSx. OSx is based on the Unix operating system and is nothing like Windows.

Apple's main selling feature is the fact that there has never been a reported virus on a Mac. There have been internally developed proof-of-concepts as well a security flaws and vulnerabilities in various releases of Apple software, but there has never been a full blown Mac virus in the same vein as those so prevalent on the PC.
