Poster: I have major security issues on Windows and my WoW account is
hacked over and over!! AHHH!

Reply from someone who's not had a security breach on his Mac and *inux
computers in over ten years: One way you could avoid that is by running
WoW on a Mac or for free in Linux using WINE or the commerical and
easier to use Crossover.

Poster with massive chip on shoulder: *bitch bitch bitch about Macs
being mentioned (usually overlooking Linux was too)*

Uhh, I can see Nemesis' point here, honestly. That reply is pretty much the
same as if someone was saying "my Ford whatever makes X noise when it starts
up, can someone tell me what I can do to fix it" and then someone else
replies "yeah, go buy a Chevy". Not helpful to the original person at all,
as they're wanting a solution to fix the problem with WHAT THEY'RE CURRENTLY
USING, not a solution that just tells them to go use something else.
