Apple Macs (PCs), MacBooks, iBooks, iPads etc.
If you're a Microsoft user, Apple computers may seem very different and odd to you. This is very much down to their Operating System (OS) and it's way of working, but Apple Mac and iOS are really just like any other operating system, they have to do pretty much all of the same things that any other operating system has to do, they just do it a bit differently and, due to different priorities and considerations in the design, the User Interface (UI) is also very different. The same goes for Linux and some other not so popular or common OSs. In fact, these and most other OSs - other than Microsoft - were originally based on the Unix OS and, to a lesser or greater extent, have been developed from this over many years and no longer closely resemble the essentially industrial OS that Unix is. This is good news, as Unix is a very stable and reliable OS.
So, what CAN you do to be safer when using a Mac or other Apple device on the internet?
