Can anyone please point me in the direction of information that shows buying a Mac is not the expensive option my co-director seems to think it is? I am looking for typical cost of ownership figures, compared not to an expensive Dell but to a bottom of the range, cheap and cheerful, no frills office PC.
The cheapest Mac is the Mini, yet this is approximately 3 times more expensive than a cheap PC. How can I back up my case for buying 5 new Macs? I'm struggling to find data...
You know, I just re-read your question more carefully and would say what a goofball co-director you have. Sorry I didn't notice the dig about Dell. Since the article refers to Dell it's clear your cohort will (conveniently, it seems...) reject it. If he (or she) wants only something that he doesn't mind repairing more often, being frustrated with much more and losing ooodles of productivity because of, then what the heck is he (or she) doing in such a responsible position? Congrats to you for trying to be a voice of reason but it seems clear to me that "reason" is the last thing this person cares about.
