This is my story:
I was a very famous person and wealthy beyond most people's dreams, I was
highly respected in my community. Until The Calamity struck! It was on a
7300. Running OS 9.1 with no security to speak of. I was invaded by
Martians. Yes! Martians! Martians with viruses, worms and much else in their
little toolkits.
Folks, David brings up a serious point! We may not be succeptable to
peecee infections, but as demonstrated in the 1996 movie
"Independence Day":
POWERBOOKS ARE COMPATIBLE WITH ALIEN COMPUTER SYSTEMS!
If we can infect them, they can infect us! And we certainly can't
depend on Jeff Goldbloom to bail us out!
