You must be new to Slashdot, or an Anonymou....oh. Yeah.

Good question, and honestly, I'm not sure. For mine, no. For some others, no. For all of them, no earthy clue. I wouldn't be surprised if at least some of them weren't, though.

My anecdotal evidence for his(her) anecdotal evidence. /shrugs.

I didn't say anything about adoption rate as a whole. I was commenting on this specific statement "Looking around at a room of IT specialists, the only ones with a Mac are middle managers. This is why we dislike it, it's a product designed to keep the user occupied, not to enable the user to be productive."

Please, do try to keep up.

As a 42 year old system engineer (*nix) I can say your inexperience is showing. There hasn't been a company I've worked for who didn't have a plethora of Macs in the hands of the developers, SysAdmins *and* managers.

Most of our linux admins? Macs.

Half our Windows admins? Macs.

1/4 of our developers? Macs.

Went to a couple Puppet conferences. Most of the laptops? Macs.

etc, etc, etc.

The rest of your comment is pure applesauce.
