The Key here is Delta's Information Technology.... Apple has no big iron HW, no High End database solutions, no failover, redundancy solutions.....OSX / OSX server have become an afterthought at Apple when Apple decided to go after the consumer market. When Apple bought NeXT - OSX/NexTStep was arguably the best server and corporate OS on the planet. I still gush over the power of EOF, true Object inheratance, WebObjetcs at $50,000 per license.... Every Monday the tech sites would post the fastest servers on the planet and OSX/OSX clusters were always up there amongst the fastest.... competing with the Japanese, Europeans etc. etc. All that fantastic power has died on the vine.... Lets face it - Oracle does not even run on OSX/Server, and Apple does not play nice with the rest of the industry - so how can a global airline buy into AAPL in a serious way?
