[QUOTE="Teri Anne, post: 2899858, member: 118816"] I ran the data center for a large Midwest based insurance company for 15 years before I retired. We ran several different versions of the IBM 360 using the Z operating system as well as both Linux and Unix based Control M job scheduler. Not surprisingly all of our desktops and workstations were Windows based. Started out with Windows 2000, Finished up with Windows 10. What you say is correct, if you are using just about any electronic device it will at one point or another interface with a mainframe computer using Unix or Linux. So what is your point? Clearly Apple was behind the development curve when they chose not to develop business software. And in reality it doesn't matter, there are Windows people and there are Apple people and each think that their choice is the only one. I have been retired for a few years now, but an IT infrastructure is all server based and the last time I looked Apple had no Server Programs. If you have an Apple chances are you are communicating with a Windows server. Your email is most likely done on a Windows Server application, fed into a mainframe computer and routed on the Internet via a system of Cisco routers which direct your message via the instructions from your computer to the destination computer based on little information packets containing all the information needed to go from your computer to any other specific computer in the world at the speed of light. (Although speedy those little packets may journey a couple of times around the world searching for it's destination. Now with all of that out of he way lets quit this discussion which is entirely off base here and return to the somewhat insane world of firearms, cases, primers, powders and bullets and leave this computer talk to the Nerds. 🤣 [/QUOTE]
