I hereby claim this page in the name of the War Tavern.
-It's computer system is isolated from the mainframe, so the only way to get a virus in it would be to walk up to it, install the virus (though it has no floppy drive, so instead code the virus), and hope the autodefensed don't kill you beforehand. And also hope the virus is better than the Pylon's antivirus systems. So, yes.
-It has a layer of insulative material, and it's internal power serves as a serge protector. So, yes.
-It is also waterproof. So, yes.
-The only way to create extreme heat or cold around it reliably is to use magic. And Xion annoyed me to give it defenses against magic. So, yes.
-Yes.

The best way to take it out would be to get rid of all it's defenses and damage it enough for an electrician to get in and shut it off from the inside.
