Hows it goin, this might sound kinda immature but anyways here goes:
Ok I bought a dual 2.0 ghz g5 w/ the 23in HD display (cheap jk) I told my friends about it who are also computer enthusiats (but mac haters) one said "Oh you bought a $2000 word processor" another said "You do know that the AMD 64 and the P4 EE absolutly smoke your computer right???" umm is all that true. I know it's what I want for music but is what they all said true???? Thanks alot SIntrepid |

think I have only had 2 viruses in my life of owning a mac since my 8500 was new many years ago... I have never used any virus protection since... it may not be a bad idea to have but I really don't think your average person needs to worry themselves over it. I know off hand 3-5 other people with about the same experience with macs and viruses in the homes... they don't use antivirus software either.
But if it makes you feel safe... then buy it and use it. -------------------- ----------------------------------------
