In all fairness, this does not apply to just Apple. It applies to the higher end Lenovos and Dells too (which are in the same price bracket as Apple's stuff), so let's not make it specific to a particular platform.
Not everyone needs to buy premium computers for their business. If they choose to, more power to them, especially if it makes their employees happier and less likely to leave.
- rebootthesystem 11y agoYou are not going to find premium devices at most companies because they answer to the same metrics. In that sense you are absolutely correct. That said, this thread is about IBM developing enterprise deployment tools for Macs, hence the focus on that platform. So, they develop tools for a platform that few can justify deploying at scale due to the inability to justify the value proposition of an 8 to 10 times multipler in CAPEX. You gotta wonder.
