Strange isn’t it Ed. I have put literally dozens and dozens of people into the Mac. One time in Cincinnati my company was having a large convention. One morning at breakfast we had several people at our table and someone got off on computers. I jumped in and for the longest time I sang the praises.
One of the ladies, at the end of the meeting, went straight to the Apple store in Cincy and bought her first Mac. Now everyone in the family has Mac’s and quite often she will write me thanking me for that morning. I have a friend from Wyoming that comes in to spend a few days with me each year, finally about 7 years ago I got him into his first Mac, now there a dozens in his family as all the kids, wives, and grandchildren all have Mac’s. I have a cousin that finally I got into a Mac, he has even converted his CPA office to Mac’s saying Windows runs much better under Boot Camp than it does a Windoze box, he post this to all his friends and on FaceBook. On and on I could go, if each one of us will bring one we’ll pretty soon have a revolution going.
