Hi Dark, if you can get to an Apple store you can try a Mac to your
heart's content. :)
Also, if you run a virtual machine, you do not need virus
protection. YOu back up your VM and if something happens to it, you
simply throw it away and bring up the backup. Since you're not
running Windows on a partition, you're not exposing your boot sector.

Hi.
Well I will have a look at the mack alternative, provided I can
actually try one first, and particularly see virtual xp working for
backwards compatibility, however on the security front, that to me
is technical specks rather than practical good. If I can run windows
xp with an antivirus and be fine, well it's secure enough. Again, I
think this comes down to an instrumental view of computers, looking
at what they do rather than their stats.
Beware the grue!
