hehe. notice though the method to get rid of the virus?

"How to remove them: If Leap.A has been downloaded but not executed you may simply delete the file. In the initial variant the file name is 'lastestpics'. If you have executed it, you must also delete this file

      /Users/[CURRENT USER]/Library/InputManagers/apphook.bundle

and then reboot the computer."

i've just been saying to my friends that if i came across a bit of money id buy a mac because im sick and tired of fiddling with ass-tastic pcs all the time. i just want something that is happy with itself (every part inside it is really, truly compatible) and doesnt need coaxing all the time. this virus threat hasnt putme off my dream...

Between that, and it being compact and virtually silent, that's why I bought my Mac Mini.  It was only $500, and it's powerful enough to do everything I did on my PC (web/email/IM, light video editing, occasional PhotoShop work, playing the occasional game, etc).

Oh, if I liked any new games, the Mac Mini would be a bad choice.  But since I mostly play things like Angband, or my old DOS games, it works fine.

Supposedly, you can run World of Warcraft on it, probably with some horrible resolution and no detail turned on, but I'm not into the whole MMORPG thing, so I can't vouch for it.

You probably can play WoW on it since blizzard (the company that made WoW) likes to release games on the Mac pretty close to the same time they're released on the PC.  Thats why the guy in the video mentioned Warcraft 3, at the time it was blizzard's newest game.
