Not at all. The fact that 18 out of 20 laptops at the perl5 meeting were
Macs and that about 2/3 of all the laptops at OSCON were Macs has nothing
to do with it.... (but it does demonstrate a major shift in mindshare that
the Mac is representing - the shift from linux to mac at OSCON in 2 years
is astounding, and the attendees of OSCON are not your normal Windows
junkies at all...)
