Though Apple has made significant attempts to break into the mainstream business computer world, the Mac is still on the outside with a mere 8% market share. Silicon.com queried a panel of CIOs to see why they arent championing the use of the Mac and Snow Leopard in the non-design workplace.
"Macs are appearing in more and more organisations. But this does not signal a major change in organisations' buying habits. In fact, while Apple is still popular in some niches in business, the IT department does not purchase or sanction many of the Macs that are gaining use in businesses. Instead, end users or businesses are buying them themselves," [Gartner VP Michael Silver] said.
