IBM uses Macs in a pilot program

Well, it looks like “big iron” IBM is considering using MacBook Pros inhouse.

Impressive is the 86% percentage of the people who chose to keep their MacBook Pros after the pilot was over:

19 out of 22 to keep the scale in context – expect this percentage to come down when the numbers reach statisticaly significant samples. Keep in mind that IBM does allow Linux on it’s Thinkpads, so yes, some people will want to keep them.

Especially gratifying for yours truly as I have been living the “hybrid” life in a company that has chosen to go all windows at a time when most small companies go the other way.
