MacOS becoming mainstream ? Or is mainstream going AAPL ?

After INTU and IBM commitments to AAPL , its now LOTUS and MSFT:

LOTUS:
" Looking to cover its client bases, Lotus Wednesday at MacWorld in New York announced plans to ship the latest version of Notes for the Macintosh later this summer.

The updated Notes R5 client for the Macintosh, like R5 for Windows, has a Web browser-type interface and is designed to function as a user's primary desktop environment.

The R5 client is a hub for Notes calendaring, e-mail, tasks, and intranet data sources, as well as general Web browsing, and customized information from Lotus partners America Online and Lycos.

Notes R5 for the Macintosh is priced at $55 for the Messaging client and $69 for the full Collaboration client. "
