As the Mac grows in the enterprise, so does its power consumption. Many IT teams are also tasked with monitoring power consumption as well. Whether it’s internal power usage or the entire fleet for remote teams, understanding how your Macs consume power can help accomplish key internal goals for power usage. A new app from Harald Monihart with SAP aims to provide the necessary information.

In November, during AWS re: Invent, Amazon announced that Amazon WorkSpaces Thin Client is now available for enterprise production and use. Thin Client is not new as a concept, but it may be the next wave of enterprise computing. With Apple seeing rapid growth in the enterprise, is this something they should consider?

While macOS continues to grow in popularity, there still are countless reasons to use virtualization. From testing Windows applications to playing Windows-only games to using Linux for daily development. For Parallels Desktop users, version 19.2 brings several new features that are pretty amazing for a mid-cycle release.

Back in October, Apple finally released an updated iMac. It was the first update since 2021, when Apple first transitioned the iMac line to Apple Silicon. The iMac has long been iconic for Apple’s lineup as it was symbolic of Steve Jobs’ return to Apple and the beginning of its current dominance in the marketplace. Without the iMac, there would likely be no iPhone. Although the iMac is considered a “consumer device,” it’s been very popular in business applications because of its self-contained design. That’s why the latest update has been somewhat perplexing to me.

Apple recently published a case study on The University of Kentucky’s Apple deployment, and I believe that it’s worth highlighting. In it, we find “PC-guy” Bill Adams looking at how he crunched the numbers and saw a great return on investment with iPad and Mac for the Wildcats. I believe this trend is a major shift that is happening in IT right now as staffing and total cost of ownership become more important than raw hardware costs.

With Apple’s fall release, we’re seeing Wi-Fi 6E continue to come to Apple’s product line. Outside of the MacBook Air, all of the Macs now have options for Wi-Fi 6E. On the iPhone, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max support Wi-Fi 6E. On the iPad, only the iPad Pro 11-inch (4th generation) or iPad Pro 12.9-inch (6th generation) support Wi-Fi 6E. Are we at a tipping point where it’s time to start considering Wi-Fi 6E deployments? What about Wi-Fi 7?

Back in early October, IDC published a report about the perception that IT professionals had around various platforms and what keeps them up at night. The last sentence I think is a pretty good way to think about the life of an IT team. It’s, in some ways, about survival. Security threats are everywhere. Systems are always one bad configuration away from going down. It’s about ensuring that the employees you support have what they need to do their jobs. There’s one question in particular that highlights Apple’s position of strength in the enterprise, though.

How important would you say it is to have security built into a computer from the ground up —
including the silicon, the firmware, and the OS — to protect it from today’s, and in anticipation of
tomorrow’s threats?
