I know as a college student here in the States (Cincinnati-College of Mount St Joesph) that the art kids who get powerbooks are looked upon as if they are the luckiest kids around. I had to switch back to windows because of my major, but now that I am going to Xavier University (Cincinnati) I am going to splurge and treat myself to a Macbook Pro. But its amazing how people have a Mac and what even gets me sometimes how many people are still using G3 macs!
