For years now, "it has been the year for Linux" (and I'm a fan of Linux). Linux called it first, so you Apple idiots will have to wait (go ahead, iPad-awan, hold your breath) for Linux to knock Microsoft of the enterprise throne, rule for a while, then it can be the "Apple in the enterprise"
But I will give you this as far as Apple "killing off" Google, I have been very impressed with Apple's search engine thus far!
BTW, this isn't Google's fail...this is LA's fail. One-third of the way into a migration and a department starts worrying about security???!!! Where were you during the planning stages? Didn't it cross your mind that your sensitive data was gonna be in the same Data Center as God-knows-what?
This is STRIKINGLY similar to the "iPhone/iPad in the enterprise" debate...forget the fact that employees will be on facebook, games, or other BS all day....some are trying to make the case that because these devices are the latest thing, and alot of consumers have them, well then they must perfect for the enterprise! Let's not worry about the fact that they are about a secure as a half-patched Win 2k box w/ no antivirus.
Both this LA gone Google and iPad in the enterprise are perfect examples of why Fads need to be kept out of the enterprise Certainly out of government, banking, hospitals, etc.
