Why Consumer Macs Are Enterprise-Worthy

cyberkahn tips us to an article in Computerworld that makes the case for Apple's consumer machines moving into corporations. (The article dismisses Linux desktops in the enterprise in a single bullet item.) With the press that Vista has been getting, is Apple moving into a perfect storm? Quoting: "There is no comparison between Apple's 'consumer' machines and the consumer lines of its competitors. All of Apple's machines are ready to move into the enterprise, depending on the job at hand. The company's simple and elegant product line, which is also highly customizable, will be Apple's entree to the business market — if IT decision-makers can get over their prejudice against equipment that's traditionally been aimed at consumers."

I socialized with your mom last night. I was at the local dive. I saw her from across the room, and her brother talked me up to her (Thanks!). She came over, bumped into my shoulder when I wasn't looking, and introduced herself. We talked for a little bit, but nothing really came of it.

Later, when the bar closed, I went to a convenience store. As I was walking away, I heard someone call my name. I turned around, and it was your mom again! She was going to hang out with her brother, sister, and a few of the bar regulars, and asked me if I wanted to come. I got in the car and had a great time.

Your mom is nice, and I want to see more of her.
