This is 'marketing' I'd guess that some of evagalist@apple.com isn't Mac
or PPC.  The dual PPro I can use from time to time is NT. :\  But I'd
guess that our mass of stats comes from lots of 'little itty bitty
pieces' from the 486 class machines.

BTW, Bill Gates told a former boss of mine about wrapping ones foot in
the power cord in case of GPF for demos. :)  Another well known trick is
to 'demo' a slug on the table with a work-hourse under the drapes of the
folding table that the cables really connect to.
