According to Jack Germain at MacNewsWorld, the Intel Macs make it easier for small businesses to make the switch since they can still use Windows programs after making the switch.
Additionally, some businesses that have made the switch have seen their support costs drop since they have greater security.
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.
“In short, switching to a Mac infrastructure has been far less disruption than I imagined, with far greater usability and far smoother operation,” Stever Robbins, CEO of the Stever Robbins Company.
Businesses that do not require specialized software from an existing Windows PC configuration will not find hidden costs in adopting the Mac infrastructure, noted David Griswold, president and founder of Oregon-based Sustainable Harvest Coffee.
The combination of Intel-based processors in Macs and an innovative software application by Parallels may have removed the last real barriers to making a cost-effective switch to the Macintosh infrastructure.
