Apple ships virus, blames Microsoft

Apple has confessed on its site to shipping some iPods compete with an unwanted guest, the Windows RavMonE.exe virus.

Here’s what Apple says:

As you might imagine, we are upset at Windows for not being more hardy against such viruses, and even more upset with ourselves for not catching it.

Funny; though I doubt Apple is all that upset since it uses Windows viruses as a marketing pitch in its rather inaccurate page on the subject.

Maybe this is what they call viral marketing
