Hello anisha,

It's good that you have planned to buy a mac machine,
Yes.

Apple Macintosh can get virus but if we compare it to Microsoft Windows. 

There is  very less chances in mac machines of getting virus.

In fact, many mac users are not even using antivirus programs.

Yeah definitely i can tell you.

Below are the some reasons:

Firstly, Mac OS is built on "Unix Kernel".

And it is very secure OS.

Secondly, Large number of virus writers know about MS Windows, and we can say that they are making

virus for that only.
