The idea is that nobody buys a PC unless someone else is forcing them to do it.

I did not say that either, why are you trying so hard to defend something that does not need defending?

The truth is when M$ ruled, It departments would tolerate nothing else, so people that needed a computer bought home computers that were compatible with what they used at work. You can not deny that. Add to that the apparent price differential and it just became the defacto standard.

Apple products are now not automatically denied by IT departments, maybe because of the iPad I don't know, but I am sure it had an influence.

The point I was making is when people truly have a choice they are buying Apple products, the problem was you interpreted people as "all people" when it is patently absurd to draw that conclusion.

By what you want this is still America, at least for a while longer.

MS “ruled” the enterprise because Apple didn’t give a crap about it, and largely still doesn’t.
