Two more switchers
My aunt is getting the LCD iMac (DVD-Combo)
She's stunned by the look of the iMac. She said it's a piece of art......also amazed by the ability to get multiple language support with ease. Especially in Chinese inputs.
Plus using my friend's traditional "knock down the price" policy she has no excuse not to own it
Going to pick it up tonite. But I will leave it in my house for a few days. I need to play with it
Second......my brother.....is making a switch but he hasn't decided which one to go for. I told him to wait.......
So...as the result there will be total of 3 members (myself included) in the family of 38 people who are Mac user.....8%......higher than Apple's market shared

So, he came up a couple weekends later and bought two iBooks. That makes 3 other Macs in my family. 7 people and 4 macs? Not too bad.
edit: I forgot to add that he was also very impressed with the ability to input foreign language with so little fuss. (Thanks ZO!) I think Apple may have a killer feature for the international community.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
Score: 3 Mac switchers, 2 Mac switchers pending, 1 iPod switcher
<strong>Just got my co-worker (PC Programmer) to buy the PC iPod today.

CORRECTION:
Score: 3 Mac switchers, 2 Mac switchers pending, 2 iPod switchers (one of the Mac switchers also bought a 20 GIG Mac iPod)
I forgot to mention my dad has a Graphite iMac....
So that turns to total of 4 people using Mac
Of course, that figure may be padded a bit by the fact that my brother owns four computers - a blue G3, a Quadra 950, and two SEs. If you don't count the SEs (which he never uses), it's still 10 Macs for 8 people. And he DOES use the Quadra 950 quite often. When he's playing a game or watching a movie on his G3, he uses the Quadra for AIM and surfing. He also uses it as a guest computer for when he has friends over. And it's good for networked Avara games.
