I just received an email from info@psacard.com. The title was "RE:here" with an attachment. I have not ever sent them an email with the subject of here, so I am sure that it is a virus in the attachment. I advise deleting without opening. If someone does open it, please visit a friend that will let you use their computer and let us know what happend

    So better to let your friend get the virus?
    Better yet, cut your losses and get a Mac, you'll never have a virus, crashes, color issues, or poor overall performanceimage

    I hear Uncle Bill is coming out with a major OS update, Windows 2005 Ultra Deluxe or something. If it follows past performance, Windows 2005 = Mac 1985.

    And those Macs sure do have tons of software choices! Err, wait...no they don't.

    Macs are superior in programming, that's for sure, it's a damn shame they aren't able to reliably integrate PC software/apps/games without suffering a huge decrease in performance.

    Hey All,

    Most of the viruses out now actually spoof the "from" address. Please rest assured that those aren't coming from PSA!

    Thanks!

    Other than games, which software packages are you running which don't have a Macintosh version or equivalent?

    I think it's a shame that anyone is allowed to buy any computer without competent antivirus software - whether Mac or PC.

    Anybody know the number of MACs connected online compared to PCs? Could MACs have any more than a 2% market share. If MACs had 98% and PCs had 2% the MAC guys would all be complaining about virus problems. Then we'd have to listen to the last few kids with PCs gloating about their impenetrable operating system.

    hojo> When Apple went to a Unix operating system largely based on open source, it opened up the benefits of Unix along with some of the other problems Unix faces. As I said, ALL machines should have antivirus software installed immediately upon purchase.
