Slow and expensive is what they are. We are pulling out the Mac we use for our network map maintenance and going to AutoCad. It's a case of the software for the Mac not being there and the Mac not being friendly with the majority of our machines.

It's as much of a pain in the ass to use as anything anyway. I have yet to meet a serious network manager who uses a Mac in his daily work. It's Linux or some variant of Unix.

With the G5, Macs are fast and expensive.

Erm, Mac OS X is a rather nice Unix.

I guess you are not aware that Macintosh OS X IS Unix?
