Member since:
You just answered your own dilemma, Linux zealot.
A company using a Mac may mean that they have 1 Mac in the whole company. The IT people can play with this computer and figure out whether they want more Macs. FYI, this is how Linux grew: The IT admins installed 1 machine (among their sea of Solaris and AIX), and tested it. When they were happy with it, they started replacing their Unix machines with Linux PCs. We are seeing the start of a trend here, and it is encouraging that so many companies are in fact toying with OS X. I suspect that as the IT dpts become more comfortable with OS X, some Windows and Linux machines will start being replaced in larger numbers.
