There has always been Macs in the French Gendarmerie (a police force depending on the
Ministry of Defense). Recently, however, this institution has
decided to ban some pieces of Apple software.
Safari now has to be replaced by Firefox because of compatibility
issues with their Intranet.
Mail, as well as Entourage, are banned as well, for they don't
implement TSL type security. Thunderbird remains as the one mail
client complying to that standard.
The Macs' future in the Gendarmerie has become ever gloomier since
the very day this institution decided to get rid of Microsoft
software. From now on the gendarmes will be using Linux-running
PCs. Since you can't get a Mac without OSX, the fight can be
considered as lost. At least, this was a place where Apple has been
surviving longer than Microsoft...
