I don’t know about Mac’s but for linux the number one security feature is it’s impossible to install anything so I can see how it would be virus-proof.

On linux it’s actually very easy to install stuff. The key is the root password. No root password, no installs.

Yep. It's called "root permissions". Which is why only a fool would run as root.
