“How many of those features would you give users in an enterprise environment?”

A lot. Many of those are productivity boosters.

Productivity boosters?how do you figure?
1. I still dont see what the fuss is about
2. if merited the enterprise user would probably get a 2nd monitor....no biggy. I have had to work on 3 or 4 computers remotely using one monitor.
3. haha yeah any good sys admin is not going to let anyone use backtomac or gotomy pc on their network. If merited they will have other options
4.screen sharing, usually there will be some conferencing software, but then not everyone is going to need that either
5.thru adequent training enterprize users put thier files on a network share, which is backed up
6.iso burning,um yeah Sadie in accounting needs to make a windblows OS cd.
7.ok, this might be helpful, but most use the outlook reminders
8.podcast capture...you got to be kidding me, productivity waster
9.computer has all the software needed to do your job, if not you request it. You damn sure wont be installing something from a “repository”
10.they themselves mentioned this is not useful just cool
11.maybe but then your computer probably just has office,IE,adobe reader really dont need a dock for that
12.this one might be helpful, screenshot of an error code
13.the reason macs have mulitouch is because they only have one button.
14.wtf, dont get it....
15.nope
16. nope
17.once again there should be much on a work computer, who cares the menus dont match
18.un necessary, you arent installing or uninstalling programs anyway.
that said some of these might be good for home computers, but they are not productivity boosters. One productivity booster is learning how to use the dang thing lol

podcasts are productivity boosters? Letting people install whatever software they want? Allowing remote access to their files without controls? Burning ISO CDs so people can steal your licensed software?

You’d be tossed out on your ear for suggesting these in nearly every corporate environment I’ve seen.

everyone of these things is possible with add-ons to the Windows OS. So if people really need it they can add it with the proper controls.
