I think Apple has a long way's to go.  Especially in the business world, and schools (for the most part).

I heard about "Linus" or whatever? Not sure what thats all about.

I think Microsoft will be top dog for a while still.

Apple is a bit too hippy for mainstream businesses and educational institutions to adopt at the moment.

Vista is just a minor stepping stone to their next huge product.  They said Vista is more evolutionary than revolutionary.  Windows Vienna will be totally different.  

"But they said that about Vista..."

Heh.

Uhh, no, its quite big in the graphics design and web development industry, and its also fairly big in the education sector.

I would make some comment about linux, but I cant see it becoming particularly mainstream for a few more years.
