Sure - if you talk with folks from Apple you'll understand that they don't market to enterprises in that way because, well, that's not usually where people who make enterprise decisions pay attention :) Also, they are still working on some of their enterprise level stuff. They know they aren't ready and they aren't pushing it yet. But I think we will see an enterprise targeted iPhone and some other initiatives later this year now that 10.5 is out the door. They do have a pretty compelling story to tell when it comes to desktop management - although you have to talk to the right folks to hear it. That's something they really need to work on - they have examples for management scrips and procedures that are pretty hot - rivals stuff you can do with AD and SMS. That knowledge is unfortunately buried in only a few people's heads and no up on the web for general consumption.
