IT in Education
Apple offers a unique value proposition.
Mac. It’s time to take another look. Why? Because Mac, powered by Intel processors, runs Mac OS X, the world’s most advanced, innovative, UNIX-based operating system. Mac comes with iLife, a suite of software that transforms your photos, music, and video into all kinds of projects. And Macs can fit right into your existing network. Macs can even run Windows, Linux, and UNIX — all with astonishing performance.
Advanced Intel processors, advanced OS
Mac computers are powered by fast Intel processors, including the high-performance Intel Core 2 Duo processors. Every Mac features Mac OS X, which is optimized for performance and is exceptionally easy to use and administer. Mac OS X is based on BSD UNIX, so it’s incredibly stable. Equally important, Mac OS X is designed with security built-in, so it’s virtually immune to PC viruses and malware attacks. Learn more
Proven value
All things considered, Mac computers can cost less than PCs running Windows. Customers find that Mac computers can deliver lower TCO than Windows-based computers.
And with the unlimited-client edition of the Mac OS X Server, there are no additional per-seat fees for connecting more users, making it an affordable solution for educational institutions of any size. Learn more
