PLM Prompt: Who will rebuild PLM for Mac?

outlook-macShort prompt. I’m reading the article “Microsoft Outlook sets its sights for Mac”.“Microsoft is offering Outlook on Mac to enterprises because of the increasing Mac presence in business. “We’re seeing customers choose the Mac platform in the enterprise, but whether their business is all Mac or a mix of Mac and PC, they interact with other customers using Windows or Macs,” Tedesco said.”

So, Office 2008 will move to Mac’s next year. Microsoft will rebuild Outlook ground up on Mac using Cocoa. Maybe it’s only me, but I see signs of Mac around much more than before. Is it timing to think about Mac and PLM usability?

Just my thoughts… Best, Oleg
