get mac or ubuntu.



seriously....why do people run anti-virus crap...

5/24/2008 7:56:31 AM

well the fact that ubuntu had a huge security flaw

5/24/2008 11:23:27 AM

^Well, it's only huge if you allow it to be huge. And it's very easy to fix.

However, this is one reason why I like Fedora, they are much more concerned with things like that.

Because running a simple, free anti-virus program beats having to overpay for a Mac and Linux as a desktop OS is terrible?

yeah, I don't see how the argument jumped from there. It's like saying you need new tires for your car and instead of replacing the tires, you replace the car...

is avg better than antivir?

5/25/2008 1:26:36 PM

I guess....

Stick with the free stuff from NCSU.

ncsu is moving to...something else pretty soon

plusdelta, what's the new one going to be?

5/27/2008 9:44:05 AM

No word yet. We've had a number of vendors present stuff to us, but progress has been slow due to our reorganization. It's something that I expect that we'll resume discussing soon.
