> Apple to establish itself as a viable work computer.

Apple is already 'established' as a 'viable work computer'. Moreso than Linux at least.

Depending on what industry you're in you'll find quite a solid adoption of Mac computers used as 'daily drivers' for people.

I am not saying Apple is a bad brand; their computers are of high quality, are great for personal use, and are more than capable of productive work.

However, statistically Apple computers certainly are not, in aggregate, established as work computers.

Windows maintains continuing dominance at 90% market share of the desktop market, and optimistic projections from Apple-favorable sites estimate about 8% market share, with Linux at about 1-2%. [1]

You can think Apple tech is good but recognize in the workplace Apple has presently lost and is playing catch-up.

Idk, I work at an airline at the moment and about 1/3 of people here at the 'head office' use Macs. Higher rates in tech teams.

Sure, maybe these aggregated 'market' figures tell a different story than what I've seen anecdotally, but they seem to be doing fairly okay in 'the workplace'
