Sure, laws of electricity are _probably_ universal :-), but you would still
need to invent a whole new computer to work on a different voltage etc.
And yes, a mac virus would be very different from an ibm one, would be

Yes, bide thy time :-)  Unfortunately the poor guy on the movie only had
3 days, so he had to kinda cheat...like those cooking shows "Here's one I
prepared earlier" :-)
