The following 'e mail' was on my machine this morning (fortunately Joan had already gotten same and contacted our service provider) ...... looks so real! and it's a major virus looking for a place to live.

I have been using the same Mac i book for about 5 years and it never crashes, never is susceptible to viruses, never needs to be "tweaked" to work with certain programs, etc..etc.. The Mac is the Gold label of computers and everything else is a distant runner up at best :smokin:
While I poke fun at Mac's I feel that if Apple and Microsoft reversed their market shares, the number of viruses writen for each would also reverse. Ditto for Linux & MS.
I couldn't agree with you more. If macs were affordable all the virus writing teenagers would have it big time.
We support 3000 pc's and 200+ macs, so I know the pain....
