Just my two cents the last two compaines I worked for was totally Wintel shops everyone was networked together and there were consent problems with the Wintels. We had 2 full time people to support the network at one company with 120 employees and 5 full time people to support the network for 1000 employees.

In both companies the tech writers all used MACs and no one in IS complained or ever said anything about not supporting them or anyone elses. Engineering was using a combination of Sun, Dec and SGI workstations for high end tasks. I do not know what servers where being used to drive the main network, actually both compaies switched from VAX servers to servers? running Oracle.

The point is, IS had to support a number of different systems, so throwing in a MAC hear and there was not an issue as long as the task you were conducting was justifed.
