    The way they save money:

    Most Macs in his company (they sell Mac software etc...not a design agency, I don't think) are probably used for non graphic-intensive work, hence it is a waste of money to buy macs to do basic office work. This is where cheap Dell's and office PC's come in and hence you have a massive cut in costs, even after buying software.

    Average desktop Mac: £600+
    Average office PC: £250-500

    They would probably only need a few really high-end PC's to do the Mac-work, but that's about it. So yeah, they save a hell of lot of money in the long-run.

    • For the price of a single Mac, they can get two PC's. PC I.T. support is cheaper and widely available.MakeBelieve
    • So in the long-run it becomes economically sensible to go with PC's. But do they look ugly as shit.MakeBelieve
