    Ahh, but how many people who read People, or the Enquirer have some sort of executive position, and hence some pull, within their company? I'd think changes are far more likely to happen if some PHB starts asking questions about "this new-fangled web browser" rather than the secretary.

    Remember, having the same apps that run on Windows available for the Mac have helped more than a few users migrate from one to the other. I would imagine the same would hold true for a Windows --> Linux migration...
