Well, I'm from Iowa—don't know if the Dem/Lib demographic has something to do with the Mac distribution, but it seems the Rep/Cons use PCs and the Dem/Libs use Macs, though I am a notable exception. Anyway, no political commentary, just pondering. I've seen the student/pro thing, but I have yet to see a guy using a MacBook White. All of the guys I've seen with MacBooks have Pros, all the way from our sociology professor (who is also a professional "hobbyist" photographer) down to an early-20's student who sits in the back row in my music appreciation class (there's a girl with an MB White in the same class). My English prof. (female) uses a BlackBook from 08—had to have it sent in due to keyboard problems (meanwhile my Pismo keeps on kicking). The iPhone is hardly rampant here, though it is growing in user base. The iPod Touch is more common. Our only Apple Store here in Iowa is located in the uppity part of Des Moines, which is not exactly a fun drive from 60 miles north in rural IA, so most people around here get their Apple stuff from a Best Buy in Ames, or off the Web. I'm feeling really "out in the holler" right now. Props to you guys in TN keeping your old 'Books running!!! I'm considering moving down there someday—know any Apple Stores with job openings?
