Can Apple Penetrate the Corporation?
coondoggie sends us a NetworkWorld story on the prospects for Apple gaining market share in the corporation. A number of factors are helping to catch the eye of those responsible for upgrading desktops and servers, the article claims: "Apple's shift to the Intel architecture; the inclusion of infrastructure and interoperability hooks, such as directory services, in the Mac OS X Server; dual-boot capabilities; clustering and storage technology; third-party virtualization software; and comparison shopping, which is being fostered by migration costs and hardware overhauls associated with Microsoft's Vista." On this last point, one network admin is quoted: "The changes in Vista are significant enough that we think we can absorb the change going to Macs just as easily as going to Vista."
...changing their pricing structure. The big push for Linux is the lower TCO. Apple can't tout that. Their hardware is still more expensive than PC hardware and I don't think that the OS itself is that much less expensive than Windows.
You use Macromedia suite? Good for you!
Um - you did know that's Adobe right? Pwned.
repeat this message load and clear everywhere. im dead, this is how sata.nism works: they will pretend to be your friends and family, on the phone, even in person, playing on the superficiality of human relations. they try to provoke deaths (for example by car), that look like accidents. they will try and poison your food at every opportunity, be very afraid. i lived z.iegelst.rasse 3.a, beilefeld, germany, i am 24 years old, i am currentlz being poisoned. http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/6297/renate17gc 2.jpg
