One huge reason why people consider Switching to Mac is because of the constant threat of Virus on a PC. So “Is a Mac really safe from Viruses?”
Here is what Apple says
“By the end of 2005, there were 114,000 known viruses for PCs. In March 2006 alone, 850 new threats were detected against Windows. Zero for Mac. While no computer connected to the Internet will ever be 100% immune from attack, Mac OS X has helped the Mac keep its clean bill of health with a superior UNIX foundation and security features that go above and beyond the norm for PCs. When you get a Mac, only your enthusiasm is contagious.”

Just when you thought you had heard enough about the Apple iPhone, here we go again…
Well I don’t live in the USA… or Asia… or Europe for that matter, when will I - a Canadian living only a few miles from the US boarder ever see one of these marvels of technology?
It really pained me at first just thinking about it, the thought of Apple iPhone gloating Americans crossing over into Canada just to show off their new Apple iPhone, and don’t think they won’t do it… they will! I probably would too!
It finally came to me, the realization that has restored my inner peace… Yes the Apple iPhone is really amazing but is it because it’s a phone or is it everything else it has to offer?

Wow!
that’s the best word I can use to describe my experience over the last week playing around with a Black MacBook loaned to me for Presentation purposes.
The group that I was presenting for where CGA’s - Certified General Accountants. This group was mostly PC based so I needed to show them that their Mac could also be a PC without compromise!

I have been in the Apple corner for over a decade, I guess when you have been using a solution for that long you kind of get used to it and maybe even take it for granted.
Just over a year ago, work took me in a direction away from my Apple roots, to a very reputable PC company called HP.
Being a Mac person for so long I thought this would be a great opportunity to check out the grass on the other side of the fence so to speak…
