I believe the list sponsor now has Vipre for the Mac as well for Enterprise 
clients.

OH there are patches.... they are just different. software update does not like 
to be run by normal users only admins, so you have to manually install or allow 
the users to run as admin.... ug....



Are you planning on any mac servers, because that is a whole new level of 
fun....

We don't run AV, but i do have ClamX on my macbook for fun.  while the mac may 
not get infected with a windows virus, they can pass them on so you do have to 
be careful there.

There are other things to be aware of, but we've had good luck.  I love the 
Mac, I am an utter fan boy, but I would say that unless users are used to the 
mac I'd be resistant on letting the users lose with them in a windows office.

ymmv
