The worst thing about getting a virus on Linux or Apple is the fact that neither one of them has their act together with regard to fixing and distributing the hotfixes to end users.

wow. it's amazing how woefully uninformed some folks are.

"sudo yum -y update" is so incredibly difficult to do to get all of your software as up to date as it can be. Microsoft is still crap for updating because everything is so decentralized. Yeah, you can get Microsoft updates from one place, but the vast majority of everything else you need to actually do anything beyond playing solitaire have to be updated separately.

Yeah--when I first saw that, I just shook my head. People are so willing to make pronouncements on things they know nothing about.
