I'm just going to say it if your going to infect them anyway and not update them why would you need to get licenses legally. okies i said what we're all thinking byesies[[Special:Contributions/24.2.26.20|24.2.26.20]] 20:06, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

: License are not for the updates.  Licenses are to not be committing copyright violation, and thus to be legal.  --[[User:Divad27182|Divad27182]] ([[User talk:Divad27182|talk]]) 16:41, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
 
::I believe Microsoft's MSDN licenses allow for setting up development/testing environments, and would be what I might use if I was setting something like this up for personal reasons, but still had enough money to buy a 103" flat-panel display...

:::This comic is not about Microsoft licences, it's just about an experiment at an isolated network exposed to many violent viruses effecting only Microsoft systems. That Linux/MAC prediction is still not explained: So this is incomplete.--[[User:Dgbrt|Dgbrt]] ([[User talk:Dgbrt|talk]]) 21:03, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
 
 
;A mention of WecanHastheTechnology?
 
 
Hey, perhaps we should mention something about the site http://wecan.hasthe.technology? Someone actually set up a system like this (in the FAQ, it was actually stated as being inspired by this comic.) Although, I suppose it's understandable (for security purposes) not to link to external untrusted sites. {{unsigned ip|173.245.56.205}}
 
 
^- Sorry to say, but the site is down and the reddit is dead for two years now. It would be fun to find something like a manual to rebuild this though~

Dang, now I want this. Imagine it: MEMZ is going on one VM, and suddenly FWOOSH! A ransomware attacks a large area of the network as another virus flashes lights in the corner. [[Special:Contributions/172.68.132.11|172.68.132.11]] 00:27, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
 
 
The wayback machine still has the archives of it, and they redirect to https://computernewb.com/collab-vm/ (which is still up)--[[User:Arandomperson|Arandomperson]] ([[User talk:Arandomperson|talk]]) 02:15, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 
 
;Mentioning Blaster and Welchia
 
 
Welchia was a worm that attempts to delete Blaster before actually doing its thing -- it would also install security patches to prevent Blaster infection in the future. I think Randall included these two viruses deliberately.
