PT. Adinoto Helps Education With New Technology Endorsement (Mac Training at School of Business ITB)

Our company successfully approached ITB to use Mac as part of their diversity program. They owned lots of HP last years, running Windows and Linux. And now agreed to get them Mac. The idea is pretty simple, School of Business ITB is the most expensive school in this country, wants to get as many as prestigious the next generation Indonesia’s business persons, but how funny that is if they never had a chance to play with Mac. So head master thinks they should be able to understand any operating systems available therefore they will be the most compliant CEOs ever. I’ve seen lots of executives knows-nothing-the-tech, but not this. ITB is heading to the right direction. 1-0 for ITB.

So we implanted (excuse my language — can’t help myself)… :-P 28 eMacs and PowerMacs. And now we’re getting them Xserve and 30? Cinema Display… enough to keep your mouth drools. So after 1 1/2 months hanging on the business delivery (I should say thanks to Lynette and Anthony from Apple for the hard works!), we finally get the machine setup last month.

Due fasting season, final exams and lots of vacancy in that month, we arranged the training would be available by this time. It was taking place yesterday 9:00AM to 04:00PM.

The training ran great. We brought lots of KitKat for students who participate actively in the sessions and answers lots of questions. We covered most of Mac perspectives from Mac OS X Tiger, iWork, iLife, Interoperability, and Common questions.

Here’s the small shots we took yesterday.
