As are U.S. presidential elections.   Sorry, that just slipped out. heh

I agree with the comment about the perception of mac and pc users in a  
corporate environment.     The PC users are more powerful which is why  
I found/find it surprising that there were/are even Mac CPU's at all  
in corporate situations nowadays - unless they are a whole Mac shop.   
I guess that Macs are perceived as providing a superior solution for  
certain applications even in non Mac environments else they wouldn't  
tolerated at all.  That, or certain user blocks have skills not found  
in the pool of corporate employees.  Probably a combination of both I  
imagine.   It does seem to come back to that Apple TV ad which  
delineates the difference between user types.  To me, the comparison  
between Pascal and C developers could be portrayed similarly.
