Agreed. I think of 3 reasons that people use Macs:
At one point in time Apple threw computers at them (i.e. education)
At one point in time software was only available for Mac (i.e. Quark)

Reasons 1 & 2 are no longer valid (though some still think they are).
I recently helped a friend look for a laptop. He said he liked the "tiny little iBook." When I asked why, he had no better response than "it's cool, right?" Maybe MS should start an advertising campaign that does nothing but show their name in the trendiest way possible . . .
