Their 4 top reasons for switching to Mac:

1. Most of the company’s layout work was already being done on Macs
2. Macs are more user friendly than other computers
3. Apple creates the most elegant computers
4. Macs are cheaper to buy and easier to maintain than they were in the past.

That's a very retarded move. The biggest cost in such a migration is retraining the staf to use the new environment and the loss of productivity during the transition period. Which means they would've been way better off migrating to Linux for $3K less per workstation and the same re-training costs.
