Troika's 'Newton Virus' is finally released into the wild and ready for you to download from our website! http://troika.uk.com/newtonvirusdownload Newton Virus is the first art virus by Troika. In the beginning were harmless computer viruses. Viruses born out of the wit of early computer adopters, viruses whose sole purpose was to surprise and amuse. A non-destructive form of artificial life. We wanted to revive this golden era, and went on to create our first computer virus. We chose to do it for mac as the platform is still a virgin territory ;-) Spice up your colleagues' day with our Newton Virus, the first virus to introduce gravity to your laptop, causing the desktop icons to fall down as if subject to the gravitational pull from the real world. Newton Virus comes on a USB key for manual infection. Simply plug the key into a computer and the virus will automatically copy itself on the hard drive. The virus will then hit at random, but only once. It will not replicate itself, mail itself to your friends or destroy any of your files, but instead provides you with moments of blissful surprise and magic. 評価![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

All MacBooks have a Sudden Motion Sensor in them (accelerometer, like in iPhone/iPod touch). That's how this works.
search EBOLA COMPUTER VIRUS in my profile
if you infect your own mac then how do you remove it?
haha
LOL!
yea but most of the time people are not doing this all the time.
No, most MacBooks have ordinary HDDs. The most expensive ones come with SSD, though. It is also available as an option.
Don't most macbooks have SSD? If so, tipping it isn't going to do anything and i doubt much affect would happen if it was a HDD
Huh, shaking the laptop around like that ought to kill the hard drive eventually. This fact makes this "virus" harmful after all..
No, we buy 'cause we feel jealous that PC users can have a lot of viruses and we have none.
it seems to me that Apple users buy viruses because they have nothing better to spend their money on
$150 might buy you a 32GB SSD. After the OS has been installed, it wont leave much room for the applications, documents, data and media. Also the current generation of SSDs are still very slow at writing data, along with a limited number of write cycles. BTW I use Macs, Windows and Linux.

Macbooks can ship with SSD... this accelerometer trick was innovated BEFORE SSDs were affordably on the market. It's not a "cute gimmick" or old hardware it's a simple answer for a simple problem. They don't try to re-invent the wheel.
It's cute how you think a virus doesn't subvert OS security. That's the whole point of a virus, even a harmless one. Linux doesn't allow a whole lot of shit without at least displaying output in a terminal, but viruses still subvert that as well anyway.
One can format USB sticks like a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM but OS X is still not going to autorun any scripts or executables on it. OS X just does not support any kind of autorunning of scripts or programs from removable media. I did Google it, and there is only talk about how the prank application itself works, using the accelerometer.
autorun . co . uk / mac . ht m (remove spaces) "Mac OS X and autorun - Mac OS X does not support any type of autorun facility." .. this applies to USB sticks, CDs and DVDs. There is autoplay, where if a DVD movie or audio CD is inserted the Mac will start to play it. Which is completely different to automatically running executables or scripts from the optical disc or USB stick.
It's cute that you think the flash drive wasn't formatted as a CD, which can be autorun'd.
$150 could get you an SSD which wouldn't have to spin down and would increase speed greatly. But Apple has to use old hardware and make up for it with cute gimmicks. BTW, I own a Mac. Hate it. :3
However if you format a USB differently the Mac can see it as something other than a flash drive. The Programmer of this app has documentaion of how he built it on the web... google is your friend.
you fool.... the accelerometer is not used as a feature. The OS call on it to see if the laptop is being dropped, in which case the hard drive spins down and is protected from crashing. Try to find out what the main use of things are before you say they are useless... I'm pretty sure you'd agree that a 2$ accelerometer chip is not a waste of resources when compared to having to buy a new 150$ hard drive...
accelerometers is totaly waste of cash in an laptop or pc.
