I do run Windows; too much essential software still in Windows only, Phil, at least for my various devices.

So my MacBooks are all dual-boot, OS X "whatever" and Windows7. My DVD rip and burn machine is a Dell PC with really faster burners -- I also use it for archiving (has 7 TB of HDD). Linux I use where needed -- Raspberry Pi and Beaglebone Black.

You are very luck, Phil -- assuming you run Windows. I just spent three days 
fixing a neighbor's Win7 computer that was full of trojans, viruses and 
malware. I *think* finally got it.  He, also, had no anti-virus software.

I installed a (free) virus scanner and an annit-malware program so he should be 
OK. I have four instances of Windows (one is 8.1) and do the same on mine.

Mac OS X seems to be another story; my two Macs have never had a virus or 
malware problem

I don't use any antivirus software and haven't in over 10 years.  Never had a
