>>And Macs are woefully incompatible with most popular viruses.<<

Dave -

Hmmm. I can see the ad campaign now . . .

"Some people say that they don't want to use a Mac because it's incompatible with their software. OK, we admit it. Some PC software won't run on a Macintosh. So in the public interest, here is a partial list of such programs:

The Klez virus (all versions)
The Melissa virus
The Love Bug virus
The Stoned virus ..."

and so forth.

PS: Of course the problem is that somebody (probably Gateway) would just run an almost identical ad where they complete the list with things like "QuickBooks Pro 2002", etc.
