A Different Perspective On Snow Leopard's Exchange Support
imamac writes "Apple Insider has an interesting perspective on the MS Exchange support built into Mac OS X 10.6 and how it essentially frees Apple from all things Microsoft: 'Windows Enthusiasts like to spin Apple's support for Exchange on the iPhone and in Snow Leopard as endorsement of Microsoft in the server space. From another angle, Apple is reducing its dependence upon Microsoft's client software, weakening Microsoft's ability to hold back and dumb down its Mac offerings at Apple's expense. More importantly, Apple is providing its users with additional options that benefit both Mac users and the open source community.'"
You're running MS servers and Unix desktops. Amusing. Not that I wouldn't jump at the chance to use OS X rather than Windows on the desktop in your place.
You have to admit you're a bit of a special case, though. It sounds like you have a very healthy budget. A $700 laptop is perfectly functional for most business cases and so spending more is gravy. Apple doesn't have anything in that segment, which makes them a write off for many.
