Sure, in my building the ratio is 100:1, Macintosh to Dell! Depends on the place of business. Businesses are definitely dominated by Wintel clones, but R&D labs like ours are not necessarily. In the past two years, we have ramped up purchases of Macs significantly. We have almost completed upgrading the last of the 68xxx machines to PPC, and are even now starting to replace Nubus PPC machines with new G3's. There is definitely alot of action within the remaining niche markets that Apple has, and even some spilling over into Wintel areas as the Wintel sales growth slows. Predicting Apple doom today is not anywhere near as smart or obvious a position as it had seemed to be a year ago.
