Since it's a design division, there's plenty of macs, and likely opportunity to shape how things run in the design dept. in the future. I was told understand there's only 1 other IT guy running things for the division- (however, he's got a more sophistocated title than 'IT guy'- you would too.) Give me a shout back directly if you want me to pass along an email introduction.
