[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1014102"] Actually, the software firewall is unneeded (which is why it ships as "off" by default). Your router already contains a hardware firewall which is more than sufficient. And yes, it's true that there are NO VIRUSES for Macs. Thus, no anti-virus software is needed either. There's nothing you need to do to "prepare" other than to unlearn all the fear and paranoia of the Windows world. :) [/QUOTE]
