Vista runs like crap on a budget system... a $460 vista PC is not a recipe for a happy customer - it is a recipe for an XP reversion...

Not sure how much your biz uses office. I work in a numbers business and we barely use each. The easier it is to use the more it likely would get used...

I suspect it will be small business leading the way because of utilities like bootcamp, fusion, etc. If these small business' must have a Windows utility to communicate with a big-blue company they can, and they can still have their user-friendly day-to-day operations on a Mac. Not to mention the seamless integration of the iPhone - which will gain even more momentum with the SDK...
What apple needs is a music-free SDK download site and a good CRM tool. Nearly all of my vendor software these days is web-based.
