Mac: An Ideal Computer for Small Business
Historically, Macs and small business aren’t often associated with each other. Yet smaller firms seem to be one of the markets Apple is targeting with Mac OS X Leopard Server. Leopard Server’s new Server Preferences interface is designed primarily for small businesses, which often need some of the features of a server but don’t have the budget for dedicated hardware or an IT specialist. Apple has also been targeting small businesses with a special section of its Web site and with special events in its retail stores to educate users and business owners about how Mac OS X can be used.In many ways, Mac OS X is an ideal platform for small businesses and offices. It is easy to install and set up, often requires little technical support to maintain, and remains free of many of the virus and malware problems that plague Windows PCs. All of this should be appealing for a business with anywhere from a handful to a few dozen employees that cannot afford full-time IT staff.

I must admit Apple has re-invented itself and has evolve into a computer workstation worthy to be in an office desk. With the internet platform ever evolving, XML, AJAX, we are less dependent on a particular propriety API.
Small businesses has been the mover of technology for the past 10 years or so. As long as malware coders doesn’t target Apple platform, you will see growth in the Apple Environment.

After literally weeks of time spent mucking about with Dell problems and XP problems, I’m going back after to Apple as soon as this crummy Dell dies. I am currently stuck in Dell Hell.
