Video: Coolest virus ever infects MacBook Pro

The Newton Virus. It’s a virus for fun. It doesn’t harm anything or copy itself. It executes just once, with the results above. It only works on MacBooks, as it uses the motion sensor for the fun effect. It installs quickly and sneakily from a thumbdrive.

Friends with MacBooks: Beware my prankster’s wrath.

Great reporting. The only thing you forgot to mention is that THIS IS NOT A VIRUS! It’s a bit of software that someone has to install on the machine. It does not self-replicate.
