iBooks Author. Apple’s evolving view of “pro” In recent years, many pros have started feeling like Apple’s jilted girlfriend. Through no fault of their own, the love just seemed to fade. Apple might claim otherwise when confronted, but the telltale signs have been hard to ignore: • Mac Pro. Apple’s most powerful Mac has been agonizingly slow in the update department. It hasn’t changed physically in eons. (Though it’s about to.) Ironically, the one Mac targeted specifically at the pro user remains the only Mac without a high-speed Thunderbolt connection. . • 17-inch MacBook Pro. . • Final Cut Pro. . • Aperture. Could it possibly be? I hope you’re sitting down for this, but Steve Jobs did in fact once consider that very option.

How iPads Are Changing Businesses. NewDominion Bank is serious about service. This innovative 40-person financial institution based in Charlotte, N.C., has done away with the traditional notions of bank branches and bankers, and instead is using Apple iPads to reach out with gusto to both employees and customers. To gain efficiencies, Sonja Allison, NewDominion’s assistant vice president and network administrator, has implemented virtual desktops using Citrix XenDesktop 5, pairing that with a Citrix Access Gateway.

By adding iPads to the mix, employees are now able to access their office workstations from wherever their job takes them. NewDominion’s operations have become more streamlined with the adoption of iPads. Instead of requiring users to go through extra steps to set up VPN access, the Citrix Access Gateway, coupled with a Citrix plug-in on the iPad, makes new deployments much simpler.
