TCO: New research finds Macs in the enterprise easier, cheaper to manage than Windows PCs

—-

This is not a surprise – it has actually been true for years. I did some serious research on the matter back in 2003, and found several Fortune 500 companies who were mixed platform – and had to hire FAR fewer Mac techs than for the PC side.

I keep my personal machine for FAR longer then usual – but you actually could put mac OS 10.5 [Leopard] on the vintage-2000 iMac DV that is sitting on the floor to my right. I wouldn’t put Vista on ANY machine made before 2007.
