Clearly you need help. Step away from the crack pipe. Try to remember that Apple almost went under if it wasn't for the IPOD. Yep IPOD.. Not Mac. IPOD. At the end of 2009, Mac had 10% of the desktop market. 10%. Crack man bought em a Macintosh

Oh that's right, a MAC is like Jesus. The Mac will solve network problems and make updates to the website. Also the Mac will prepare you for a 911 type disaster. Yes, you are right the MAC is like Jesus it will cure all problems.

Bottom line MAC's are computers, computers need service. All computers have their own set of issues and MAC are no different. A business need to nimble to hit a home run, without a IT Person, MAC or Windows the business will be crippled.
Do me a favor, explain the process of mapping to a network drive and how a user can access it every time they are in the office or offsite.

Great post. I just upgraded my laptop and iphone and similarly excited about the beauty of apple's topline products currently. A couple apps I use all day are: quicksilver http://www.blacktree.com/ (launcher and search), taskpaper http://www.hogbaysoftware.com/products/taskpaper (todo list with cloud syncing), getcloudapp.com (very simple cloud based file hosting), and I love this little scrolling google reader ticker called Snackr http://snackr.net/, for some time I have been using fluid to create my own app version of google reader http://fluidapp.com/, but need a new OSX blog reader - suggestions?

Your "IT guy" won't have anything to do if you use a Mac.

[...] with products that people have already purchased contributes to a strong brand. For instance, continuous interactions (e.g. Brad Feld’s “Month of Mac”) with well designed Apple products clearly just drive the motivation to buy more Apple products [...]

I concur on Adium – definitely the best chat client on the mac. I generally don't use a blogging client – so I'll have to check out Marsedit.

If P90x turns out to be too easy, there's always "the Insanity workout", which puts P90X to shame!
