At ladt night's MacWorld keynote, Apple's last, one product in particular shone in absense: Mac OS X 10.6, Snow Leopard. Many had expected Apple to give out more details regarding its new operating system, maybe even a release date or a developer preview. Instead, all they got was nothing. Some say it's a mistake not to show off Snow Leopard now that Windows 7 is stealing all the thunder. Or is it?

I do not think Apple is targeting Snow Leopard for the corporate world, but I do think Apple knows it has to acknowledge it, mainly because of the iPhone, so Apple is eliminating obstacles that would hinder bringing the Mac into the office. (Intel) Leopard is UNIX certified, and Snow Leopard will have out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Exchange Server.
If Apple does make a play for the corporate world it will come with the release of Mac OS X 10.7 Server, which will have an iWork component that will function like iWork.com so workers can share their documents with each other.
