True, True, point taken. Unfamilarity with the system and what not, definity works to Apple's advantage.
But you can't forget that Apple is now the largest distributor of a *nix system
Interesting that IBM has been running Lunix Inside commercials.
OK, I'm going on a bit it seems.
Here's a thought before I hit "Post Reply" ....
I wonder what the percentages actually work out to be. As in, I know several people who bought PC's and then that machine ends up collecting dust and I bought a used iMac for my wife and she let it collect dust. So, what kind of ratios are we actually talking about?
computer owner : somewhat competent user
computer owner : word + email user
computer owner : expensive pile of worthless computer components
computer user : I use a computer that is in a rectangular box.
I bet if this type of ratio was figured out for each system then it would make more sense than saying Apple has only 3% of the market while Microsoft has 80% (I'm guessing here). You could say Apple has 3% of the market with 80% of it's users are computer competent and Microsoft has 80% of the market with 80% of the users being proficent in email.
hehe, I couldn't help the dig
Oh well ...
