You do know Apple doesn’t really do business support, right. They have the mentality of consumer first...if businesses want to use it so be it. I doubt they will be competing at the business level long term unless they make some big changes.

I see businesses dumping iPads for Surfaces and Chromebooks every day.

I have not seen that.

A lot of people associate Chrome books as hacked by the NSA. It’s why Google sales are waning.

As for Microsoft Surface it’s sales compared to Chromebooks and iPads is a blip on the radar.

Apple in October will be rolling out the iPad Pro. Which is a 12” screen vs. the current 9.7” iPad. I think it will be a hot item this Christmas.

iOS 9.0 will be very good too. The size of it is 1 GB vs. almost 4 GB from iOS 8. So anyone on an older Apple Device will have room for it. It has A.I. in it that will make your battery last 3 hours longer. They have a new software too that is on iOS 9 that makes all your Apps run 8x faster. So anyone with an old Apple device should really speed up. Siri will be a lot more advance and Apple Maps too. Nevertheless, Apple is still playing catch up to Google on the maps.

Google was also first with the fast software, even with a slow internet connection, while Apple and Microsoft is now coming up with similar software in their OS. However, they are still far behind the curve.

Overall I think Microsoft will do okay with Windows 10, but I don’t think they will have the same market saturation as they did with Windows 7 or Windows XP.
