Eight financial reasons to use Mac

Posted by bordalix Thu, 02 Aug 2007 09:06:00 GMT

Cio wrote an excelent article with the eight financial reasons why you should use Mac OS. In a nutshell, the reasons are:

  • Macs bring a better overall value proposition
  • Macintosh licensing fees are cheaper
  • The Mac desktop spawns fewer calls to the help desk
  • Mac users are more productive workers
  • Macs last longer
  • Mac OS is more secure
  • Mac is just as cost-effective as Windows to manage and administer
  • Add Macs while hanging on to your investments in other OSes

The war season is open, please send your flames.

    Of course all this is useless if you live in Portugal and you have a problem with your Mac... Mine is at Interlog for the forth time in just under a year and man, could i tell you a thing or two about those guys.... Anyway a replacement deal was proposed by Apple, but it had to happen in Spanish territory, which is illegal according to our law. Given this experience, i don't think Mac is a suitable platform for a professional or company _in_ Portugal.
