Is that really true?

We have 20000 Mac users in a company of 90000, I don’t think this is a corner case for large technology companies.

What more management is required? Anything more and IT would probably fuck it up like they did when our division was still on Windows.

Not saying your company has to be like this. Just saying 1) this is where MS has very little competition, and 2) where they make absolute bank.
