  1. Re:How to make enemies and alienate people on Ubisoft Testing PC Prince of Persia Without DRM · · Score: 1

    Gotta love the observer effect.

  2. Re:Safe... until on Apple Says Macs Are Safe, No Antivirus Needed · · Score: 1

    You don't think that the desire to crush the smug sense of superiority held by us Mac users is enough reason for someone to write a virus for it? Hell, there's a virus for the DS version of Linux which must have perhaps a thousand users at most.

    It's not probable that they make their own soft if they start saying that everyone should buy another one.

    But for the virus question, it's true that there haven't been many viruses yet on anything but Windows, but don't forget that MacOS and Unix have another type of users which will maybe not click on every button on the internet.

    I think that has more to do with the situation than any other single factor.

    To be honest many Mac users are system agnostic, I for one use Mac at home but every other computer I have access to runs Windows, using one OS does not stop you from being fully literate with the other.

    Well, Yahoo got taken out by that teenager a few years ago, It isn't implausible to take out google but it would need to be highly focussed and well coordinated.

    Thats also ignoring the fact that AIDS is not the only STD out there, it's just one of the most lethal.
