Database products such as WebObjects could synergize with OS X Server and could start to give Apple a nice chunk of that lucrative market. To date, OS X Server has not captured a significant fraction of the server marketplace. Once OS X Consumer is shrink-wrapped, I believe OS X as a server platform will gain more credibility, and data products like WebObjects will hit a nice growth curve. With Mac OS going to UNIX, and with OpenGL already in place, Apple will probably be more successful than Sun in pulling in SGI's customers and garnering developer support for high-end 3D apps. Creative people love Macs.
Nothing succeeds like success.
Apple is on a roll. But maybe that's just me. Sometimes, the government still works. Hard to believe, but true. Microsoft has no right to blame the government for their woes.
