Kudos to those who support Macs, even if there are few of them lying around.
Any one know what the current stats are for Mac usage? A quick search found this 2004 article:
T h e R o a d L e s s T r a v e l e d The Mac numbers game: Don't believe what Windows bigots tell you... Apple's global share in the market for new computers hit a low of 1.7 percent in 2003. The 2004 numbers are likely to be a little better, but not much. Yet my own rough calculations indicate that 8 percent of the personal computers used today in homes -- leaving out all the computers used in offices and businesses -- are Apple Macintoshes. Others have said my number is conservative; I've seen the total for Macs in home use as high as 12 percent.
