Are you trolling? I can't tell, so I'm going to assume you are serious.

It's this kind of attitude that will *make* Linux a bigger target...

I run critical production servers and of course they run AV. Am I
worried about current Linux viruses? No.

- I'm worried about Windows viruses being transmitted through those
Linux machines to Windows users.
- I'm worried that future Linux viruses will be better and hope that
AV vendors will react.

But thinking "I run Linux, I don't care about viruses" is a complacent
and dangerous attitude that needs to be stopped. By the time a Linux
virus is out in the wild and working, it is too late to be thinking
about retrofitting AV to your machines.
