Instead of just saying "nonsense", you might try to mention a few of Apple's applications or tools that aid business. I used to work for a company that had about 300 X86 PCs and eight or so Apple Macs. The Macs were used for a typesetting application. The PCs ran the business; order-entry, customer service, etc. Could the Apples have done it? Probably! They didn't because the PCs and their software were cheaper to buy and maintain.
