[MacGroup] Antivirus Software

2013-10-08 Thread Wendi Williams
My new job requires me to have antivirus software on my MacBook in order to use 
the network. Does anyone have any suggestions for something that is minimally 
intrusive and won't slow it down t much?

Thanks!

We use sophos at work for Mac users. They have a free home version.Since 
it's on the gov network they seem to feel it is better then normal ones

[MacGroup] MiFi Update

2013-10-08 Thread John Robinson
It's been a few months now using the MiFi units from ATT and Verizon.  When I 
first purchased these the speed of the ATT was unreal, it ate the Verizon 
unit's lunch, there was no comparison.but as far as usage the Verizon 
unit is by far the most versatile, having coverages in vastly more places than 
the ATT.  When we traveled out West for close to 3 weeks I used the Verizon 
almost exclusively, and while here in our area the connectivity is close to the 
same but outlying areas are almost totally in the Verizon camp.

Since these units have nothing to do with our phone provider it's good to know 
the differences so we can make informed decisions.   If I had to choose one, it 
would be Verizon.
