The Mac can fit easily in managed environments, even in organisations that support mixed platforms. It can run Windows applications, connect to virtually any server and share files with almost any PC. This enables users to collaborate easily, without compatibility concerns. The Mac can also authenticate to Active Directory servers with plug-ins already built in. And with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, you even get out-of-the- box support for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007. |
