[TriLUG] .NET on Linux

[John Vaughters]

Lee,

Valid point. I guess my view is it would be career suicide to go into a meeting with a Director ,CEO, or Board and say, " I really think we need to look at Apple to solve our IT business solutions". To be more specific, you wouldn't ever consider Apple to run a factory,  manage electronic medical transactions, monitor mission critical operations or create an electronic trading market. I could go on but I think you get the point I was trying to make. Even with the IBM deal, you are only going to get applications for the end user. Apple is great for shiny beautiful sparkly things and they deserve the premium for that capability. They are just not in the business solution realm and I do not expect them to be any time soon.

That is what I meant by no one really developing for Apple and I do not really see .NET helping Apple change that.

I agree with you that there are tons of end user applications for Apple they excel in this area actually.
