one thing i noticed was that button above the d-pad. i hope that is just the power and not like a regular button.. it would suck to have to move your thumb to use that one.
It seems obvious to me why IT undergrads would be more "in tune" with MS products. MS frequently makes deals with universities to have their products featured on university owned computers. My current function at the university I attend is tech support, and all that we support are MS products. All the public labs on campus have MS products only (except for the Macs, but they have MS Office on them anyways). There's even a MS student group, which gives away MS software, has MS programming contests and basically brainwashes a bunch of future IT people into the MS Mentality. Now don't get me wrong, I think that MS has a pretty good product base that works well (for the most part), but the lack of software diversity at many major universities is appalling!
