I'd say statistiacally that most people using Dells aren't Geeks but I
bet there is a sizeable minority who are (based on the Chad definition).
My point is that its not actually the majority that lead technological
change. The leaders are by definition a minority - a minority that has
greater influence than sheer numbers. Who knows what computers such
leaders use. Are they geeks? Maybe, maybe not. Are they politically well
connected, probably. Are they joe sixpack? Almost certainly not.
