In his article Should Apple Even Care About the Enterprise? Don Reisinger fascinates us with another idiotic, FUD filled, and misinforming article about Apple and Mac’s suitability for the enterprise.

It’s hard to decide where to start.

Emphasis is mine:

First off, there’s little support for business applications. For the most part, software developers create software for Windows. Historically, it has been the best operating system for business users and because of its domination of the business market, it only made sense for developers to focus their time developing for Windows, rather than any other operating system. At the same time, Apple hasn’t played nice with developers, deciding instead to keep its operating system closed down to control the Mac OS X ecosystem. It helps keep the operating system secure, but it damages the company’s ability to attract developers.

How did Apple keep the OS closed down? Apple ships complete, FREE developer tools with each copy of it’s operating system. Anybody can write complete, commercial applications for the system without Apple’s approval and without paying Apple a cent.

Another nugget:

That issue of security is another problem that Snow Leopard faces. Without a doubt, Apple’s latest operating system will be its most tested yet. Since the release of Mac OS X Tiger, more security outbreaks have targeted Mac OS X users.

Really? What outbreaks? The two lame Trojan horses that require the user to enter an admin password in order for them to work? The same two that failed to spread at all? Yes, that’s very similar to a windows system where the computer can be infected simply by visiting a web page.

I can go on, as there are many such gems of misinformation and outright lies. But that would really be a waste of my own time. Needless to say, the guy is a prime candidate for ‘Jackass of the Week’.
