Religion Wars: Linux and Mac vs. Rationalism

 
Greg Linux is disappointed that the Confliker virus didn't do more damage on April 1st [Did Conflicker Flop? Yes. Why? Nobody knows].

I wasn't worried because I checked all five of my computers and not one them were infected. If they had been, it was very easy to get rid of the worm. My Linux machine didn't have the worm either.

That doesn't stop Greg from offering this advice ...
Experts expect that the worm is going to re-awaken at some time in the future and possibly actually do something. In the mean time, you may want to get rid of it if is on your system.

If you run Windows, the best way to get rid of the computer is to get a Mac or a Linux computer. There are probably other ways to do this but I don't really care. If you are running Linux, this worm can't directly affect you.
Sheesh, those religious nuts sure can be silly.
