Ten years ago my enterprise apps made me stick Dells into some offices. Now all of the apps are web based and they work just as well on Safari as anything else. Any enterprise app that has not shifted to purely web based should be taken out back and shot.<br><br>The only Dells I have now are wired directly to scientific apparatus and they only do one thing, run the instrument and collect data. I don't allow browsers or mail programs on them. They script the data off to other computers where the data can be analyzed easily, on a Mac.<br><br><br><br><br><br>

The problem, as I've been told, is many of these web based apps are designed for IE only. <br><br><blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr><p>The only Dells I have now are wired directly to scientific apparatus and they only do one thing, run the instrument and collect data.<p><hr></blockquote><p>Yeah, like good old Perkin Elmer? <br><br>

Isn't that the guy who mocked the idea that Bear Stearns would have problems and urged stock owners to hold on to the stock . . . the week before Bear Stearns went belly up?<br><br>[color:red]</font color=red> [color:orange]</font color=orange> [color:yellow]</font color=yellow> [color:green]</font color=green> [color:blue]</font color=blue> [color:purple]</font color=purple>

I really don't know, Marg. I don't follow financial analyst talking heads . . . but I sort of remember seeing someone post a clip of one of those guys giving that advice about Bear Stearns, and I think it looked like this dude.<br><br>[color:red]</font color=red> [color:orange]</font color=orange> [color:yellow]</font color=yellow> [color:green]</font color=green> [color:blue]</font color=blue> [color:purple]</font color=purple>

I love Cramer's talk on Apple. He likes to speak about his first hand research. He has two teenagers that love anything Apple. <br><br>He bases his his calls on what his kids and their friends want. He claims it works every time. It's likely more accurate than the other mumbo jumbo the analysts like to spew to make themselves look knowledgeable. <br><br>
