[ubuntu-uk] <O/T>Tablet security!

[Pete]

Hi all,

Probably a mute point, and I have no wish to feed a troll, but on TV 
earlier they were advertising 'Norton Tablet Security' for Android 
tablets, given the close similarity between Android and LINUX / UNIX 
based systems (I believe Android started out as open source based on 
LINUX), is it now essential to install an Anti-virus / anti malware on 
our systems?

Just got me thinking thats all.

Regards

Pete.
