Macs in the Enterprise
has been involved in technology for 20 years. Starting out in the DOS world, he moved slowly up the evolutionary chain through Windows and Linux, finally landing in the loving arms of the Mac community.
He has had an on and off, love/hate relationship with Macs throughout this time, having experienced the dizzying heights of the first Mac 128K when he was a boy and the unending heartache of being a Performa 6200 owner. He currently has a much more mature, understanding relationship with his three Macs: a Power Mac 5500, a 1.25 GHz eMac, and a black MacBook.
Writing about Macs in the Enterprise is his first foray into professional journalism.
