A RISC-based workstation is *way* more expensive than Wintel. ~Umberto Nongeroson 4.Oct.02 02:50 PM a Web browser Notes Client 6.0Linux - RedHat
Specially in countries where there are hefty import fees for imported products.
We have a big advertising agency in Brazil that uses Notes. They have Macs, obviously. Think the majority of their "non-creative" (web design, graphic design, video/multimedia) users use Mac? Nope. Way too expensive!
If Macs were cheaper, wouldn't there be more market penetration for them? Hell, if I could afford a Mac, I'd have one by now! :)
At least with the ammount of RAM and Disc I have on my Dell :)
