I see macs quite a lot on tv, presenters using macs rather than windows
laptops.  This must have an effect however I notice as I am into
computers, when i was in canada in 2006 i noticed that the local tv
station had red hat, as there was a desktop in the background that had
the red hat logo on the kde menu. or it at least looked like a red hat
logo,
