Ditch your Macs, Dell tells EMC staff
Arthur T Knackerbracket has found the following story [theregister.co.uk]:
Amid Dell's looming takeover of EMC [theregister.co.uk], an edict has been issued insisting that Dell customers must only ever see Dell laptops during meetings and consulting engagements, EMC insiders have told The Register.
Thus, any Macs in EMC staffers' hands will be confined to quarters.
After Dell and EMC combine, those office-bound Apple computers should be safe from company-wide rollouts of Dell Windows PCs. EMC has in the past revealed [emc.com] it has a bring-your-own-device policy that lets people use personal devices to access email, in-house messaging and private cloud storage.
Dell confirmed [channelregister.co.uk] in the past it is fully behind the BYOD movement, just not for its own staff (apart from smartphones).
At least EMC staff after being offered nice replacement kit, in the form of the gaming-bred XPS machines [theregister.co.uk], that another insider told us have been promised to incoming Dell employees.
