Apple isn't even going after the "enterprise" market. The Mac works very well in a Windows server based network, with Exchange. So in other words, it's perfectly fine having Server 2012 (or 2008) with Exchange, SQL Server, Sharepoint (and all the rest), with PC's and Mac as clients.
And frankly, I don't think MS is even going after the PC anymore. It already owns it. It wants what it doesn't own: mobile. IOS and Android are kings in mobile. MS isn't even on the field.
That's what Windows 8 is all about. It's about leveraging Windows 8 (on the PC) into users buying Windows based phones and tablets.
And that leveraging is a big risk. and I don't know. I mean, it's clear to me Metro is not aimed at enterprise. Time will tell if it's a good bet or not. I hope so. Cause if not MS will become irrelevant - sort of like what CA or Novell are right now.
