Our IT department is looking at increasing our investments in open source solutions like Linux, because they want more control. We are performance a financial analysis of this initiative. Someone on the team proposed looking at Apple (Macs) as an alternative. Of course, everyone scoffed at the idea. The real choice seems to be between Microsoft Windows and Red Hat Linux. It is clear, however, that no one in our organization has looked at the data. Does anyone have experience with a migration to Apple for enterprise or business software / computing. At a minimum, I would like to know of any trends for Apple in the enterprise or business computing segment.
