As an Apple stockholder, I love it! Sell more iPads! Please! Work your way into 
the enterprise in any way you can! Go for it!

As a developer in the business space, of course, another of my warring 
personalities has a much more visceral perspective.

Back then I worried about how the Apple and IBM alliance would affect 
FileMaker’s business, but I haven’t yet found anyone from FMI that sounded the 
least bit worried about it. I also have seen nothing in my milieu that has been 
touched by its tendrils in any way. 

Now that SAP is also drinking the iOS kool-aid, it’s just more of the same: 
they only serve the big guys.

The much larger number of entities in the small to medium-sized business space 
that need just as much (if not more) mobility, security, flexibility and power 
and can’t afford the elephants in the room turn to the mouse that roared: 
FileMaker.
