I've said for decades that Mac's are just another computer. They're not inherently better or worse at anything than any other computer. Particular implementation issues are better or worse, but that's the case with anything. The people who think that Mac's will never fly in the enterprise portray the same attitude that those who thought that Linux would never fly in the enterprise. Or that PCs would never fly in the enterprise (mainframes are so much more reliable and capable, after all). Macs may gain more traction in business, or not, but simply assuming they won't because they haven't yet isn't good. Of course, by the same token, simply assuming buying a Mac will make IT problems go away isn't good, either. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
