Module 6 - the Final post

Congratulations to everyone for surviving another semester. To my distance cohort ONE year down. WooHoo!!
In searching the AHRQ site I discovered just how much government (tax payer) money is out there being used to develop and implement computerized healthcare records. It was amazing to me to see the list of funding opportunities on the AHRQ site.
I learned the difference between a hacker and an opportunist and a virus, trojan horse, worm, and other malicious software. Speaking of malicious software...
I learned in this module that I really like my MAC. It seems to have so much less malicious software out there against it and much better built in security. I have come to this conclusion because in January this year I bought my first PC. This week I had to take it to a computer geek to clean it up. I had picked up quite a few viruses in 11 months and my computer was acting up. I've been a MAC user since 1993 and this kind of thing has never happened with them.
