There are a couple of ways to address the virus problem besides installing anti-virus on Windows. Here's a few things I'd consider if I wanted to run an office with minimal computer support: - run the LTS Ubuntu instead of Windows - maybe run OS X, on Mac Minis if buying new hardware - install one Windows terminal server for critical Windows-only software - lock down firewall to permit only whitelisted web-sites - run locally hosted (I believe this is possible) Google Docs as office software Windows virus problems, people surfing Facebook, porn, you-tube, Twitter etc., will suck away time in an office if you don't get some kind of a handle on it. I hate offices where stuff is super locked-down, but put in charge, I'd want to screw things down pretty tight. Obviously developers, salespeople might be somewhat of an exception... it's a hard call to make.
