I would very much like to get >some questions to ask them that they won't like... This kind of attitude really worries me. There are aspects of Apple's corporate attitude I dislike and this has affected my decisions when spending my own money. However, when advising others, I consider that I have a duty to be objective. This means that while I may explain my concerns about Apple's policies I would not go out of my way to dig up dirt about the companies products, many of which are quite excellent. If you think there are sound reasons why your organisation should not buy Apple products, then why not make these clear. This seems to me to be far more honest than trying to rubbish products about which you seem to have very little knowledge. Andrew
