Why Both PC and Mac Need Antivirus Software

There are over 100 million users of Apple desktop computers and laptops in the world; however, it's a fact that more than 80% of the worldwide computer users choose Microsoft Windows over Apple OS. That's because of various reasons, and therefore confuses Apple developers who constantly struggle to come up with improved variants and user-friendly interfaces. No matter the efforts, it seems that Windows will continue to win this round and battleship over and over again while Apple has to admit its defeat.

But just like regular users, hackers and virus programmers also mostly target Windows users because of their great population compared to Apple computer users.

The Future of Computer Technologies

Microsoft has been doing research since 2007 to find another prospective workshop for the evolution of Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI). They recently published an impressive document on what these interfaces will be like in the year 2020. The report concludes that by 2020, speech and gestures will play a crucial role in our relationship with machines. Nerve impulses will begin to be used to control computers, especially for the disabled. The report also predicts that ubiquitous connectivity will enable systems to act as substitutes for human memory, and when will be combined with the increased processing power; we will begin to supplement human reasoning. Traceability of our movements and actions will cease to accelerate and instead will expand, raising serious issues of confidentiality. In the medical field, the boundary between the human and the computer, via implanted medical devices, will begin to fade.
