I dunno.  It'd be obvious who created the virus as soon as the EULA
popped up.

Thinking out loud here...

We've all noticed the rise in virii on the Linux side of things lately. 
While most attribute this to age, I like to think in be more X-file-ish
with explanations.

If I were running a multi-billion dollar company, one which was morally
bankrupt, how would I go about undermining confidence in a competing
system?

Why, of course, I'd secretly fund uber-hackers to develop virii for that
platform, and then make sure those virii received wide-spread publicity
and FUD.

Hmmm...

John
