yeah i wouldn't bet on that secure aspect. check slashdot. there's a link to a recent analysis of OS security and mac isn't faring as well as you would think. and as for the fbi using macs. sure. they have to use every OS so they can have an easy way of forensic analysis. if it's used by someone then the fbi and other parts of the govt are gonna have to use it also. so they use mac...and linux...and windows...and bsd. etc.
