But thats not the worst part, not only do iPods ship with a free virus, but Apple also try to pass some of the responsibility on to Microsft. I quote from the site:

"As you might imagine, we are upset at Windows for not being more hardy against such viruses"


Heehee... the new "Dog ate my homework" excuse... "ITS MICROSOFTS FAULT"

Didn't Creative have a similar problem a while back, where a whole batch of MP3 players had viruses on them?

Edit: Yes, they did (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/09/01/creative_mp3_player_virus_flap/)
