While browsing around the apple site today I stumbled across their Get a Mac FAQ section. Now I was familiar with Apple’s answers to most the questions I was suprised by the following:

Do I need virus software for a Mac?
Apparently, the official answer from Apple is NO! I bet this makes Norton feel great. While I myself have never run any anti-virus software on my Mac I always assumed that others did. Since I’ve never had any virus type symptoms and I know the UNIX base for OS X I always felt comfortable that my system would stay “healthy”..
Let us know in the comments if you use any Anti-Virus software on your Mac… and if so, why? If not, why have you never felt the need to do so?
