A *nix without a secret handshake is like a fish without a bicycle.

Yes, viruses *are* theoretically possible on these platforms, but let's
be honest here - even if you included all of the platforms, you'd only

At worst, you have to run another network segment to connect all the
machines that are able to defend themselves without assistance.
