RE: CIOs vote on Vista for '09
You could look just at numbers, or you could consider some real-world information:
- MacBooks are the #1 laptop on College campuses
- Businesses are *usually* (i don't know about YOUR business) run by people with college experience
- Many businesses value their employees' input.

The new burgeoning workforce that's graduating in the next few years are all Mac powered. Even in my CS classes, I see more Macs than PCs. Workers are going to be speaking up to get the better OS on their desk.

Apple's lack of growth in the past is primarily not because of the software, but of the prices of the hardware required to run it. However, with Apple's new surge of notebook sales, you're going to see a LOT more young consumers (the ones most likely to buy) with Macs.

All we have to do is wait for the trickle-down effect, as students continue buying macs and graduates continuing to use them.
