Filed under: Cult of Mac Wil Shipley, of Delicious Monster, feels it is about time that we as Mac users rise up and say, 'We do NOT have herpes.' Wait, that's not quite right...Ah, he thinks that we should be touting the fact that there are no known viruses for Mac OS X instead of focusing on the fact that sooner or later there will be one, and he is thinking about putting his money where his mouth is. The proposed rules for this 'contest' are that you prove to Wil that someone running a variant of OS X 10.0 (fully patched) was infected with a virus that exploits a flaw in the OS (not a Word macro) before September 20, 2005 and Wil pays you $500. If no one collects then Macs rule, or something.The genius of this challenge is that the cut off point is in the past, so this won't encourage folks to create a virus for 500 bucks.
