RE: Mac is the AS/400 of Desktop Computing per Dvorak

Actually I would love to see the AS/400 redone the way
Apple has transitioned to OS X.

-Apple is now moderate cost, still not the cheapest but handsome and
functional.
-Unix core, with open source support, to rapidly enhance and extend
-Tools to migrate from old Mac to New OS X styles
-Productive development environment (10 code line full function word
processor? yep!)
-Free development tools!
-Nice servers with unlimited user licenses at no extra cost. (CA at $280 per
desktop!)
-Good Java support

Best of all worlds? Could be!

Regards

Konrad
