  • >Business will never switch to Apple, screen or not, because most of the business software is Windows only.< There are many types of businesses. Ours, for example, is very graphics and presentation heavy and the high-end macs are the best solution. Unfortunately Apple doesn't offer anything we can prudently use for the vital people who don't need workstations.

  • >Apple needs to offer a blade server, they also need to offer a Tablet, a lcd remote, a phone, a TV, a car!< No they don't. But they do need to offer a complete set of computers that a buisness may prudently adopt. They don't. They offer great workstations, great laptops, have interesting things happening with x-grid, but don't have anthing for secretaries or lawyers desktop except for those silly enough, and fiscally & environmentally irresponsible enough (fashion sick consumers) to buy and throw out a screen with each cpu. So we who would like to go all apple, end up having to create a mixed environment-- which is a huge and expensive hassle to keep on top of and are forced to windows.

  • Not really. The problem is being forced to buy a new monitor when we already have plenty of good ones. We've been a principly Mac shop since 1985 but am probably going to be switching to windows for our new low end purchases, this irritates me so. It feels like pure rip-off. The Imacs also make too strong a design statement. I want visitors to think about our work, not our computer choice. They also make us appear un businesslike, as if we would sacrifice functionality for compactness & fashion. We need an Imac with no screen in a commodious plain box.
