Total cost of ownership: PC-based desktops versus Apple Mac's -- "It is well known that Apple's iMac has captured both design awards and the 'hearts and minds' of Apple's core audience in the graphic arts and academic sectors. Apple's machine might make fashion statements, but in the cold light of day with corporate IT organizations having to reduce the number of desktop configurations, maintaining Macs is proving to be nothing more than a headache and additional management burden. This is borne out when looking at data on the total cost of ownership of Macintosh desktops."

The title is obviously just a come-on. There is absolutely no analysis of TCO in relation to Macintoshes. The last time "Macintosh" is mentioned is only about 3% of the way through the article.

If you used a Mac you'd understand why a Windows machine is just that, a machine!

Macs rule!!!
