Apple officially finished...
My rep and I met this morning with our Zune players "locked and loaded". After an hour of taking in the ambiance at Starbucks, we got down to business. On the list was the official demise of Apple. My rep and I wrote an internal memo MANDATING all employees to migrate their home machines to Windows 7. We shut off VPN access with an OS level less than Windows 7 build 6956. Vista is officially legacy here although we will support it for a few more weeks. Of course my rep and I will not provide Windows 7 media; we are telling employees to pay for their own MSDN Universal subscription and get the bits that way. With Apple teetering on the brink, now is the time to go for the kill with Windows 7. As my rep says, "Windows 7 has us all in heaven!".
