Contrary to the silly ignorant claims of resident dimwit trolls:

IBM found that not only do PCs drive twice the amount of support calls,
they're also three times more expensive. That's right, depending on the
model, IBM is saving anywhere from $273 - $543 per Mac compared to a PC,
over a four-year lifespan. “And this reflects the best pricing we've
ever gotten from Microsoft,” Previn said. Multiply that number by the
100,000+ Macs IBM expects to have deployed by the end of the year, and
we’re talking some serious savings.

Needless to say, the employees at IBM got it right. And with 73% of them
saying they want their next computer to be a Mac, the success will only
increase with time.
