Mac OS X: The Open Alternative

Abstract

IT managers are increasingly frustrated with the cost and loss of control associated with Microsoft software but nervous about the lack of control associated with Linux. Mac OS X offers an exciting alternative, which combines the freedom and flexibility of Open Source and Open Standards with the security and convenience of a fully integrated solution. Come learn about the compelling features and third-party solutions which can make the Macintosh a first class citizen in your corporate network. You'll also hear about how scientists, designers, developers, and system administrators are making the Mac their UNIX platform of choice.
