That's pretty much how 99% of the viruses infect PCs.

still, that was ONE virus. versus most viruses out there.
There are more MS-DOS/Windows viruses than all other types of viruses combined.

and now for a fun video!

It's because of their market share, not because of the quality of the machine.

I would like to concur... (again ) it's because of the quality of the machine. Macs are too awesome to get a virus...

but seriously, Macs are safe and secure so you can't get a virus on a Mac.

Macs didn't even have access to Microsoft Office until a few years ago, when Microsoft released the source code to Apple after years of fans begging for it.

The Microsoft Office was introduced for Macintosh in 1989, before Office was released for Windows.

Also,

RIP Steve Jobs. Steve Jobs is my idol. I know he was a really bad person in any ways, but he was the greatest CEO in history. I believe all CEOs should follow the philosophy of WWJD: What Would Jobs Do

He may not have always been a good man, but he was overall a good person, and very unlucky dying at his age.

So even though he was stingy to the poor and amoral to the workers in his sweatshops, we should think of him as a hero because his advertisers knew how to brainwash the public into buying all of his products? Sounds great.

1,500 people die from cancer every day in the United States alone. Just because this man was famous doesn't make him any more special, especially considering his less-than-hospitable track record.

Stingy to the poor? Steve Jobs was a private man. Any and all charitable donations of his would not be under his name.

His sweatshops? You mean Foxconn's? You should look up some of the other companies that license foxconn, it's a very interesting read.

I have a question for you wmaster. How many jobs have you created? (no pun intended). Every job a man creates is essentially a very large charitable donation. Giving jobs to people accomplishes much more in the long run than giving them a little bit of money.

Btw, Steve Jobs had a rare form of cancer.

Nope, they're Apple's sweatshops:
http://news.change.org/stories/apple-ad … ld-iphones
http://peoplesworld.org/rotten-apple-ip … -in-china/

And are you implying there's a "private" charitable foundation created by Jobs to actively better the community? Or are you implying that he anonymously donates money here and there to anything from political elections to prestigious universities?

If every rich person counted the jobs they create as "charity," the poor would become even poorer. You can't call "jobs" a form of charity - how is a starving child going to benefit from a new opening at the local Apple store? How is a dirt poor father gonna put food on the table with a new Apple salesman job that requires years of higher-level education he simply cannot afford? How are the devastated families in Haiti gonna benefit from some upper middle class college graduate getting a job at Apple? Creating jobs does NOT count as charity for the common man. It's charity for the elite - the people who aren't in DIRE need of charitable donations.

And so just because he had a rare form of cancer, he should be thought of as an idol? Yes, let's just toss the child aside who just died of brain cancer because it wasn't "rare" enough.

Re: Steve Jobs has passed today. ( 10 / 5 )

Wmaster, just because apple products are made in sweatshops doesn't mean apple owns the sweatshops.

Yes, I'm implying anonymous donations. He was also an early contributor to product red.

Whatever facts you pull from who knowd where, jobs help people. Don't even try to deny that.

I don't consider him my idol because he had a rare form of cancer, it's because he was a great businessman.

Apple admitted to owning the sweatshops, though. Apple had complete control and complete knowledge over what was going on in there. It's their sweatshop. No one tied them down and forced them to associate with the sweatshops. They took them on in their own free will.

Anonymous donations are simply not enough for someone with his amount of wealth. Those donations are dimes and nickels to him. He made no substantial donations to any worthwhile charitable organization whatsoever.

Yeah, those kinds of jobs help people - people who are qualified to work them. Like people who are already well-off enough to have gained the qualifications necessary to work those kinds of jobs. The people who benefit from the jobs Jobs made were not the ones who needed those jobs. They were not that bottom percent, those living so far below the poverty line that one dollar to them is like winning the lottery. Those jobs don't help the homeless who get kicked out of a homeless shelter in the dead of winter due to lack of funding. It doesn't help the mother who has to take her family to a soup kitchen on Thanksgiving. THESE are the people Jobs should have been helping, given his power and wealth, and he failed to do that. I don't respect that.

Proof of Macs getting a Virus.

Anything that has the word Mac and some type of security agent in the name is usually malware. Also, most Mac users don't know much about them. So yeah. :3

Re: Steve Jobs has passed today. ( 10 / 5 )

Most public donations by rich people are only small fractions of their wealth. And it doesn't say apole owned them, says they licensed them.

Who are you to say who needs jobs? Plenty of qualified peoole are in financial trouble due to lack of jobs.

Doesn't matter. They knew this was going on and they continued. That was an amoral decision, no matter how you look at it.

Yes, the recession has messed up the job market for the middle class, but their jobs come and go like this just about every decade. Tom Cruise creates jobs, too. He has a publicist, an interior designer, an agent, a make-up artist, clothing designer, etc. Is he a hero? It's the lowest of the low who need their hero. Jobs could have been one, but he failed at that.

Plenty of companies also license ou the same company. For example,
Microsoft
Sony
Nintendo
Dell
Just to name a few

Then why wasn't the public outraged at Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, or Dell when these allegations were raised? That's because this specific sweatshop was Apple's. The child labor was taking place at the sweatshop licensed by Apple, not Microsoft, not Sony, not Nintendo, not Dell. This was Apple's sweatshop. It was going on right under their noses, not Microsoft's, not Sony's, not Nintendo's, not Dell's. Apple's noses.

Re: Steve Jobs has passed today. ( 10 / 5 )

wmaster, it was foxconn's choice to do that, and apple has made attempts to stop foxconn from producing the products illegally.

the scandal there was something people uncovered that had been hidden. for all we know those other companies have it going on too, and are just better at hiding it.

Re: Steve Jobs has passed today. ( 10 / 5 )

Guys, thousands of people died in Syria, and are still muredered by some crazy tyrant, because all they wanted was freedom, something Jobs had. 3 Billion peoples lives with like 1% of Steve Jobs money, and without his rights, his education, his health - Oh, btw, great news : people die starving in Ethiopia, where Steve Jobs could have feed them all for years before being out of cash.
Who are you to say is life is better than theirs ? Better than ours ? How many "genius" like him died because they didn't have his chance ? Hundreds ? Thousands ? Millions ? How can you live with yourself when you cry some guy who had a nice life when billions have a crap life ? Steve Jobs was one of the 10% that owns 90% of earth wealth. He wasn't a visionnary, he was a selfish guy who didn't give a damn about others.

Oh, and I don't know him, I don't know why I should be sad about it. What makes me sad, however, is to see people too selfish - and uneducated - to understand that there are thousands of millions of poor people around this world that doesn't even have electricity, water, access to a real education, and so much more. And those people die everyday. No one cares. No one ever will. They are nothing. They are "poor".
