I hope Apple realizes that the security exclusions also apply to
Dept. of Energy National Laboratories for technology such as
wireless (keyboards, mice, bluetooth, airport, etc.) and writeable
removable media (CD, DVD, whatever comes next). If they don't offer
models without these technologies, we can't buy Apples for secure
areas!
Of course I have to ask: how many Macs are in your secure areas
*right now*? And how many PCs?
The ultimate question is, does it make financial sense for Apple to
make a model sans wireless/camera to appeal to the federal market?
No matter what I personally feel, this is the question that will be
asked and I'm pretty sure that I know the answer: No, not in purely
financial terms. This leaves open the possibility of using non-
financial arguments to sway Apple.
