		<description><![CDATA[Friday, September 11, 2009 I read an article recently which inspired me to dive into this topic with a blog post of my own. The article in question was “Why are there no Mac viruses?“ by Philip Elmer-DeWitt.  The article makes a few interesting points in and of itself. However, I found the comments which [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=technicalconclusions.wordpress.com&amp;blog=738121&amp;post=51&amp;subd=technicalconclusions&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[April 15, 2009 Like any good rivalry between competing companies, characters from both sides take shots at each other, hoping someone will take their word at face value and not challenge the validity of such claims.  When it’s done in humor, you tend to get a little leeway with the claims you make.  However, when [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=technicalconclusions.wordpress.com&amp;blog=738121&amp;post=41&amp;subd=technicalconclusions&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

It’s easy and even sometimes fun to play the role of the armchair quarterback. It’s easy to say what should be done when you have no personal stake involved with the outcome either way. Likewise, my opinions on the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=technicalconclusions.wordpress.com&amp;blog=738121&amp;post=31&amp;subd=technicalconclusions&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
