Considering a MAC

No one would bother developing for a G4 anymore. That's like developing for Windows 98...

 

You can get a HDMI adapter. Can't speak for bluray.

 

Yea, well, when your a broke college kid you make do with what you can get.

 

Anyone?

 

A friend of mine says no worries on a Mac.

 

crunchy not smooth. Only full term breast feeders eat smooth - the pansies!

 

So why is that logic perfectly acceptable in your empty-headed shallow fashion world, but not applicable to a technological investment? And since when does anyone's reasoning have to meet your approval?

I think you've exposed yourself yet again.

 

its highly unlikely but I would still use appropriate security measures because you may be safe from viruses, but what about other ways hackers get your information like phishing and dubious websites. Also, a physical firewall wouldn't hurt because you have to worry about information security. Just because you are unlikely to get infected doesnt mean there arent other threats to worry about. The ultimate goal of an attack is to destroy data or datamine data. Both have detrimental capabilities and neither of them require a virus persay.

So, with a Mac do you still have to install Nortons or Spybot or some kind of anti-malware programs?
