Ross Geller's laptop
editThe last sentence of the section In popular culture currently states Moreover, the computer was a PowerBook G4, with which Windows-targeting malware would not be compatible. I was about to improve the wording of the sentence following the comma when I thought, what if Ross had Virtual PC installed on it? Wouldn't this worm have had an effect within the virtual machine? I will tag the sentence with Template:Disputed inline. —173.129.175.205 (talk) 18:58, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
- I think you're reading too much into a sitcom, and crediting the writers and the characters they create with far too much complexity. I don't consider it a distinction worth making and would advocate removal of the disputed tag. Chaheel Riens (talk) 19:16, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
- I was about to remove the tag after realizing that Ross must have written his speech using a Mac word processor and therefore would have had it saved outside any Windows VM he may have had on the PowerBook. But another editor has removed the entire section for being unsourced trivia. —173.129.175.205 (talk) 20:52, 11 February 2020 (UTC)
Effect
editHaving read through the article back and forth a couple of times, I cannot find any clue of what this virus actually did other than forwarding itself to the recipient’s contacts? What damage did it actually cause and thus what makes it actually notable?Tvx1 21:13, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
