Within the finance industry, and many other industries, there is very little use of Mac operating system and Apple hardware. In this, the first installment of a series of blogs, I will try to depict the reasons that Mac's are not as prevalent in the workplace as PCs.
1. Mac is proprietary - No one else can make them, they are made by one company, and serviced by one company, Apple.
2. Relatively new - Many corporations would need an absolute IT overhaul to switch to the Apple computers, this could be extremely costly.
3. Hardware costs more - Apple computers are very expensive as compared to PCs
4. Financial information systems tend to run on PC. Therefore most financial software is not optimized for MAC OS
