>_> <_< MAC FANBOIS! I think I should buy a Mac when I grow up and can afford my own computers so I don't have to deal with viruses like Windows...

By then there will be so many users on macs that the number of viruses would be around the same as windows. Linux>all


 

What does Linux do? No hax0rz?

It's a system so unused and unpopular that nobody bothers to make virus' for it because they figure there is no point since it'd be extremely unlikely for anyone using linux to ever come across it.

That's the reason why there are no Mac virus' either.

Not because their operating systems are better... but because they are so marginal nobody thinks it's worth their time.

It's lik an ugly girl bragging that rude guys never hit on her. Not saying Linux or Apple are inferior or anything, but the fact that people don't develop virus' for them is a poor thing to brag about.

Personally I wouldn't go through with it because I'd likely have to dual boot with windows anyway to use half the stuff I need and play half the games I want to play. Doesn't seem worth it.  If I was going to do it that way i'd just go back to DOS.

Ah the days of DOS where if you forgot where you saved something you were pretty much just screwed.

Either way virus need to be tailored to the operating system they're targeting.
