Q: My understanding is Apple is no longer providing security updates for i-Mac OS X 10.6.8 with Snow Leopard installed. Is this true?
I've heard that if you have an i-Mac OS X 10.6.8 with Snow Leopard installed it no longer automatically nor manually provides Security updates or any updates for that matter. If this is tru, then I suppose anyone running this OS X system is completely vulnerable to any phishing, malware, viruses and so on. Is this true?
I really need to know so I can choose to either get a new computer or purchase an anti-virus protection program. This is the whole reason I purchaed an Apple product instead of staing with Windows P.C. I am at a complete loss and don't know what to do. Please assist answering these questions from a highly qualified specialist in this area. I greatly appreciate any feedback as soon as possible. Thanks, T.J.
