OS X will always be vunerable, it's just that more viruses have been made for the Windows platform. If that's about to change, then Apple might not have much of a leg to stand on. We'll see what their response is, the only thing they could claim is the different OS and no worrying about ACLs and the tons of prompts Vista gave, Win7 eliminates those since you can control UAC. Apple's going to have to find another leg to stand on.

Media bigwigs declare that free TV "is broken"

These guys wonder why DVRs are popular, maybe because of all the stinkin commercials. Too bad the FCC can't regulate how many commercials could happen. I'd only allow two blocks a half hour 3 minutes maximum. You'd at least have 80% content 20% ads.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"All of these new nettops have me intrigued. I'm looking for a small, quiet and cheap PC to replace my aging tower in my home office, and all it really needs to do is load Microsoft Office, check email and surf the web. Is there a particular nettop that's better (or a better value) than another? I know it's a rather new segment, but hopefully someone has taken a chance on one already. Thanks!"
