Tell that to users of Mt. Gox or the many smaller sites that have lost bitcoins to hacks.

Coinbase is probably better secured than that, but I wouldn't trust any Bitcoin bank at this point. Personal computers are bad too because of malware, but I'd say the average consumer would be considerably safer with a safe.

Try reading what I said, the average user isn't a trader and wasn't on Gox. You've offered nothing to disprove what I said.
