Actually they are relatively virus proof, the OS is still proprietary
software, not widly distributed like WinDoze by MicroShaft. It takes
a Real hacker to crack a Mac, not your local teenage pothead...<G>
(html for BIG Grin) During my several years as a SysAdmin for a NASA
project the only viruses we encountered for our All Mac system were
imbedded in MicroShaft Office eMail...naturally our filters and
firewalls stopped them cold.
But Randall is also correct in his demographic logic...ah well...
Macintosh Forever!!!
