    You also have to remember the about the old idea if there is no crime what do we need the police for? If there are no crashes and the computer are always up then why are techs needed? I have heard some former coworkers of mine say that they do not want a system that does not break down. If they had that then they would have been out of a job. Or if there are no bugs then why would the company want to keep me around.

    Why not Macs? You now have a stable Unix Environment that supports MS Office but what about the accounting applications? What about this app and that app. Just uprooting your computer infrastructure is a very expensive proposition. Also there is the issue of training your IT Staff to support an Apple network environment. Macs may be great platform but you still need some to support it. Remember MSCE are everywhere. It is harder to find someone to even touch a Mac. This should not stop people from investing in getting a Mac but it should you should do because it make sense for your company period.

People go through others garbage recreating shredded documents, camcorders catching people in the act, carbon paper, copying machines. You always need to be careful when dealing yours and others information.
