[Wylug-discuss] Eeepc and virus protection

[ALLEN, David]

Hi,

The eeepc is so impressive, we are thinking of giving them to our
service engineers, which raises the question about virus protection.
Before anyone comments, I know it runs Linux and consequently is much
more robust than windows etc etc 

However,  this is a serious point if this bit of kit is to make the
transition from school desk to work desk. Asus have now shipped 1
million of these laptops so before too long someone is going to try and
break one. Any suggestions/views anyone? It does have antivirus software
pre- installed but I am not sure how effective it is.
