This is absolutely incorrect. Google Maginot Line. People are attacking Linux and Apple.

That TF-20 Vista machine I rebuilt is for my taxes. It will not go online except e-file. That's a pretty safe computer.

I have one at work that is never connected to any network. It is stored in a locked container is a locked and alarmed room is an access controlled building patrolled by guards inside a fenced in facility with cameras monitoring the perimeter. This computer runs Windows XP. It might be the safest computer on the planet.
