When I arrived in 2001, I saw maybe a few iMacs, but hardly any apple laptops. By the time I graduated, nearly everyone you would see in the halls, dorms rooms, library... they were using Macs. Walking around campus, you would see those iconic white ear buds in the ears of everyone. I recently went back to visit. I saw maybe one aging PC laptop out of countless MacBooks. If these people are soon to be the gate keepers, Apple is on the ups. I went to a respectable state university. When I arrived in 2001, I saw maybe a few iMacs, but hardly any apple laptops.
