One of the things I really like about OSX is its UNIX foundation, maybe I am feeling nostalgic about the time when I was focused on technology. This may end up being not so different of the guys my age who buy a Harley Davidson bike to live again a past that never was, because the fact is that I never ever worked as a "real" engineer besides my own business activities.
Whatever the reason, I have decided to start blogging my experience setting up the IT systems of my (micro) company using Mac and OSX.
I will cover both front end applications (productivity software) and back end (typical server stuff). And of course I will cover development, if you check my other blog you will read about my new projects.
My set up includes several G4 and Intel machines. All of them are running OSX 10.4 (tiger). I decided not to migrate to Leopard as I have the feeling that it would offer me nothing and it would spell a long period of instability.
My production systems are an Intel MacMini, a MacBookPro (intel too), and a G4 PowerBook. There are a few other machines for test and development but I did not set them up yet.
My next entry will be about setting some basic server services.
