However, I do believe that there is a lot of practical reason to run just anything besides Windows, if you want to miss a lot of the volume of attacks.
If that's what you're after you don't even need to abandon Windows. I know someone who until recently was running Windows 3.1, and as a result was about as vulnerable to malware in practice as I, running NetBSD/sparc, am - none of the even vaguely widespread malware runs on 3.1. /~\ The ASCII der Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mouse () rodents montreal qc ca / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
