I don't believe any research as specific as this is available for free. I
get my research from Gartner and Meta Group, but it is rather costly.

Not only that, Apple's share of the laptop market grew faster than the

That is true.

Just take a look at CFUN. CFUN-02 had very few Mac users there. CFUN-03 had
enough for people to take notice, while CFUN-04 had quite a number.
Anecdotally, that is encouraging to see such growth in the CF market. I
believe Macromedia has a signfictant amount of Macs and apparently Sun has
more Macs than any other company outside of Apple.
