If you search "Stronge" in google you'll find it is a last name and a company... How odd.

It still means you get no viruses though. :P

Also, I think that macs are harder to manipulate by a virus. Windows just seems to have a lot of "Windows" into making an unknown file auto-executable, opening automatically in an email, downloading without the download manager popping up…

Maybe we should get better perspective and see how easy it is to manipulate Linux? :P

Linux ruined my iBook's partitioning and I had to get it zeroed out. . .

That's not what I meant, I meant on a computer intended for linux in the first place.

Yes, but pretty much the only difference is that they come with Linux on their HD instead of Windows..

I now officially hate Windows again. I installed it via Boot Camp to play True Combat: Elite since it isn't universal binary and doesn't run as well as possible on my Mac. Anyways, It takes about 30 minutes to install and then the keyboard doesn't work. It takes me an hour and a half to get the keyboard to work, then I install the Mac drivers and restart. The keyboard won't work again. So I use my USB keyboard and get True Combat: Elite. The firewall then slows the auto-update down to about 10Kb/s so it takes about an hour to complete. I quit then and figure it's the firewall and turn the firewall off. Then my computer won't connect to the internet. Long story short, I love Macintosh more than ever now.

Why do you think the windows firewall was slowing down the auto update?

Technically, that's not the best proof that windows sucks, though who says you need proof just to dislike a system? :P

I don't think he specified which firewall it was though…
