Times, they are a changin’

Mac FinderMy friends will tell you that I used to be one of the most anti-Mac people in the world. I would tell people that I hate them and that PCs will dominate my world forever. About 2 months ago I got an iPhone. I loved it. I love it more now. And, much to the disbelief of my friends and co-workers, and the utter astonishment of my wife, I just bought a MacBook (2.4 GHz, 2G RAM for the geeks out there). I was on the net in 5 minutes and receiving email in about 6. I couldn’t believe computing could be this easy! But for those Mac users in the world who make up the 10% (and growing) user base for the Mac, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking we don’t need to watch out for viruses, spyware, malware, hackers, etc. We do, so keep your eyes open and be sensible. The Mac user base presents itself as a growing target for the hacking world - 10% of the world’s computers totally unprotected by security software. Just watch out, these hackers are pretty smart… (and yes, I’m keeping my Compaq, just in case…)
