Mac Migration
The Mac News World posting Migrating to the Mac Infrastructure tells the story of a SMB (Small and Medium Business) experiences migrating to a Mac.
- Many SMB entrepreneurs have discovered that switching to Apple from Microsoft incurs far less hidden costs than anticipated and brings productivity and cost savings despite slightly higher purchase price on Mac computer tags.
- Businesses that do not require specialized software from an existing Windows PC configuration will not find hidden costs in adopting the Mac infrastructure …
- “All the new hardware paid for itself in two years. Also, we didn’t have to pay for annual support fees to clean out adware-ladden hard drives. That was a savings of several thousand dollars for each PC,”
- “I figure I’ve saved at least five days so far in administrative time, which more than makes up for the price of the new computers”
- “Interoperability is fine. Adobe PDF and Microsoft Office files transfer between Mac and PC seamlessly. Mac Mail has a checkbox to send Windows-compatible attachments, which seems to solve attachment problems,” Robbins said, adding that he also uses Gmail, which is platform-independent.
