. . 6% of Windows users who bought iPods have switched to Macs, and 7% more plan to make the jump.

THEY'RE SWITCHING PING!

If you want on or off the Mac Ping list, Freepmail me...

I may be one of those switchers in a few months. Not because of iPod but because of M$'s rotten security.

So true! I had an iPod for nearly a year before I bought my iBook. The style, intuitive interface, everything just made me want to look closer at a Mac when I needed a new computer. Now I will never go back to PCs as long as Macs are still on the market.

We were in the Apple store last night and probably 75% of the folks in there were looking at or purchasing various iPods. We went in to check out the Shuffle...for my money I'd rather spend a bit more and get the iPod Mini. My 10 GB iPod is only about 1/3 full, so the 6 GB would be better than the 20 GB "big" iPod. But lots of teenagers were in there buying the Shuffle...512 MB is enough for them to hold maybe 100-120 songs and even a teen can afford it at that price point.

We have an iMac, ibook, and Sony Vaio. We'll take the Macs anyday.

That survey is 100% worthless. Just FYI.

When I can play Half-Life 2 on a mac, then I'll think about it. :D

Lots of mac news this weekend, and you're busy!

I just got my iPod Shuffle and it's great!

Easy to use, and has a huge memory for such a little critter.

thanks for the ping!
