Seems like Apple is getting serious about the corporate market and has been hiring former RIM sales managers.

Its a little hard to do a corporate push when you stop manufacturing corporate infrastructure.

Unless Apple licenses OS X to someone like Sun or ports the server tools to linux/windows, there really isn't a chance.

If Apple was smart, put out a corporate version of OSX that can run on any "normal" PC hardware. Plenty of x86 server hardware out there. One can't forget OSX's open source roots and pretty much any Linux based tools can be made to work on OSX. There's plenty of Linux software/projects that can be "appropriated" for a push into the corporate world by Apple.
