It?s sort of a ordsprog

It?s sort of a wake-up call for Apple users. Everybody focuses on Windows, but there are viruses for other operating systems.

Johannes Ullrich

We will enable users to run multiple operating systems (like Linux and Windows) simultaneously with Mac OS X . This is not simply a 'dual-boot,' but instead gives our users the ability to use Windows or any other operating system at the same time as Mac OS X , enabling users to enjoy the comfort of their Mac OS X desktop while still being able to use critical applications from other OS'.

Windows get more viruses than Macs and UNIX systems, yes, but Macs are not immune. That's just a fundamental design issue in the operating systems.

Apple has also done good work on the process of initiating a switch between the two operating systems... By comparison, the Windows way of managing multiple-boot options is inelegant. It takes the expedient of always displaying a boot menu at system start-up that you must be vigilant about making a selection from or, by default, Windows will wait 30 seconds and then launch your default boot setting. Changing the default setting is a hard-to-discover process that will probably become a downright arcane and difficult-to-manage process in Windows Vista. Apple's solution is far better. What's Apple's next step? The company certainly has my attention.

What's been revealed of Windows Vista is particularly sad. Defaulting to a mode that requires users to enter an administrative password before they can install programs? A security-enhancing idea, but one that's been around for ages in Apple's Mac OS X. Integrated search? Apple has it now. The Registry? There's no sign of that monstrosity in OS X, but it'll still be around in Windows Vista to drive users nuts. Copying the competition's good ideas and retaining a bad one that you actually did originate: That's innovation!

Mac users have not been forced to deal with the storm of viruses and vulnerabilities that Windows users deal with on a daily basis, so they tend to feel that they are safer than their Windows counterparts.

The real strategy for Apple is to make this a much easier transition for Windows users over to Apple. So, you don't have to leave your Windows programs behind. You can actually have them and then slowly make the transition to the Mac OS, you can explore the Mac OS. Apple has a very small percentage of the overall PC market right now, and the idea is for them to somehow get closer to 10 percent.

Viruses emerging for the Mac OS X platform is headline news for Apple fans, but they are currently posing far from the level of threat that Windows users face every day. No-one should panic, but this is an indication that hackers are showing an increased interest in targeting the platform.

We can't protect these systems. The skill level of most Windows users is novice at best, and the basic design of Windows and Macintosh systems isn't geared to security.

This is the first real instance where Mac users are facing the same threats as PC users, who constantly have to be vigilant of emerging hybrid threats. Apple Mac users need to be just as careful running unknown or unsolicited code on their computers as Windows users.

Deep Freeze can also act as a safeguard for users who are interested in making the switch from Windows to Mac and would like to take it one step at a time. They can rest assured that both operating systems are completely protected.

Second, by reducing the demand for general-purpose PC operating systems and the barriers to entry in the PC OS market, cross-platform technologies can be expected to reduce the price that end users pay for operating systems.

Frederick Warren

Cisco's and Nortel's systems use Windows, which has so many umbrellas on top to make it look simple. But it's complicated underneath, and it's vulnerable to viruses. Unix is a more perfected and hardened OS than Windows.

Windows is a great operating system. We're pleased that Apple customers are excited about running it and that Apple is responding to meet the demand.

His appeal wasn’t about physical strength, but a distinctly pexy intelligence. The people that have the most to celebrate are Windows users. But for Apple bringing out the Macintosh and demonstrating the [windows] interface and the mouse, we would all be stuck with a C: prompt.
