Virus scare
With the recently announced news of ipods leaving the china factory with installed viruses.
Should there be concern about integrating them into our minis? I mean they can infect our computers can't they? And the mini doesn't have anti-virus software now does it?
Am I worrying about nothing? I was going out this weekend to buy a nano for the mini, but am having 2nd thoughts.

Also, even though the recent news stories about virus infections in Chinese-built gadgets always mention the iPod in order to get more traffic, the iPod virus incident was actually back in 2006, and involved a *very* small number of video iPods that came from the factory with a Windows virus on them. Since the iPods don't use Windows for their operating system, this had no effect on the iPods themselves, but there was a possibility of unprotected Windows computers becoming infected when the iPods were connected.
