Heh.. there are quite a few Mac users on the PLUG list (myself
included).  In general, there is significant overlap between Linux geeks
and Mac geeks.  Go to any Linux conference and count the number of Linux
laptops.  Now count the number of Mac laptops.  You'll find that the
Macs outnumber the typical PC laptops by at least a factor of 3 to 1.

For the record, I have three Macs in my house although one is being
replaced by my new kick-ass 'really-really-really quiet' Linux desktop. 
I tried to put my daughter on a Linux desktop a year or two back and it
just didn't work out in the long run so she's on a Mac.  My laptop is
also a Mac... really, once you have a Mac laptop, you'll never want to
go back to a lesser solution.
