I ran into a line from Woz a while back claiming that those early Macs were resistant to viruses etc because most of it existed on a ROM chip rather than an HDD.
In essence, the Mac had more in common with the C64 and Amiga then it had with the PC.

- digi_owl 10y agoDamn it, i keep forgetting about that one. Maybe because i never knew someone that owned one.
- ido 10y agoI only ran into them long after they became obsolete (there were/are lots of them in germany and the uk, and probably the countries around/in between them). They were so similar that an add-on was sold for the atari st that allowed one to run mac system on it, somewhat faster than the equivalent mac :)
