I had a interesting adventure the other day. A friend of mine's son is |
| 2 |
getting ready to go to college. Budget is tight so we went to find a |
| 3 |
used laptop for him. I went into the local puter shop and the techie |
| 4 |
guy there had a interesting statement that makes me think I'm not |
| 5 |
recommending them for computer service to anyone else. While we was |
| 6 |
chatting, he said that Linux is just as prone to getting a virus as |
| 7 |
windoze and so is a Mac. I think my laughing let him know I wasn't |
| 8 |
buying his comment. |

I since did some googling and it seems I am right and he just thought I |
| 11 |
was some know nothing guy he could sell some service too. Anyway, has |
| 12 |
anything changed to make Linux more prone to viruses than it used to |
| 13 |
be? I read a percentage somewhere that said like 99% of viruses are |
| 14 |
windoze only. Is there a indisputable source of information on this? |
