A Reality Check for Apple in the Enterprise |
In late October, a buddy from my MacWeek days e-mailed me with this half-joking dig: "Apple's worth more than IBM. The Mac wins!!" My friend wasn't alone in his glee. Bloggers and Web sites devoted to all things Macintosh were quick to put a verbal boot to IBM's keister when Apple's market capitalization surpassed IBM's. At one point this month, the stock market pegged the maker of the ultratrendy iPod and iPhone at a higher valuation -- $12 billion more -- than IBM, which makes boring old mainframes.
