[G5] Does yr G5 have any viruses?

[david]

The last Mac virus I saw was more than a decade ago but that doesn't  
mean we'll stay virus/malware free forever. The Mac has lots of built  
in protection that Windows lacks but the most effective way to harm  
someone is to convince him to do it to himself. I remember a couple  
years ago an email floating around warning people of a virus and  
telling them to look for a file on their computer and delete it. Lots  
did...it wasn't a virus. Having said all this I'm glad I don't depend  
on my Windows box for my livelihood.

I really like Small Dog. They have competitive prices and I've had  
good support from them. MacConnection is another company I've had  
good dealings with.
