Donny my friend...Macs suck cock

I have 4 of them. Last summer I was a PC user. We bought a Mac for my fiancee because she needed a new computer and I thought, "What the hell? Let's try a Mac."

Here we are a year later and I own 4 Macs and only 1 PC now (to check how websites look).

Macs do indeed ROCK! (and I love not having to worry about all these new worms and viruses)

A new internet virus has been detected that can infect Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows platforms faster than previous computer worms.

The ZOTOB virus appeared shortly after the world's largest software maker warned of three newly found "critical" security flaws in its software. The latest worm exploits security holes in the Windows platforms and can give computer attackers remote access to affected systems.

The latest virus can connect to a specific internet relay chat server and give hackers remote control over affected systems, which can be used to infect other unpatched machines in a network and slow down the network performance.

Microsoft has warned that an attacker could exploit a vulnerability in its Internet Explorer web browser and lure users to malicious web pages, and could run a software code on the user's PC. The company has issued patches to fix its security flaws as part of its monthly security bulletin.

I preordered the dual processor G5 before it was released and its probably THE best computer/technology investment I've ever made. Had it for well over a year now and only use a Windows computer when its absoloutely necessary. Macs kick ass. :thumbsup

It wouldnt make sense for a hacker/virus to target macs.... not enough of them to pull off what they are hoping to do
