I had one of my users ask me why we don't use Apples instead of Dells.

He seems to think that with Apples we'd be able to avoid trouble with spam, virus, spyware, etc.

I can't get mad at him as he's trying to be helpful, but fuck, people who don't work in IT should keep their nose out of IT business. Doing otherwise, makes them look like idiots.

Tell him that when one wants computers, one goes to a computer company, not an mp3 player/cellphone company.

Tell him adults don't use toys.
