Larry, Yep, there were lots of Macs. And in fact, the entire evangelism team use Macs, with only two exceptions (one of whom is yours truly). But keep in mind that CFUnited appeals to the high end ColdFusion developers, and the demographic present at that event is absolutely not indicative of the ColdFusion developer base in general. The very vocal high profile minority present at events like CFUnited and cfObjective and Scotch and WebDU, and subscribed to cf-talk and the like, are just that - very vocal, but definitely a minority. For example, and I know many here won't believe this, but among the greater CF community about half of developers use Dreamweaver for their ColdFusion development, and they like it, too! Oh, and when I visit customer sites I still find that most ColdFusion developers have yet to ever use a CFC. Seriously. We'd never ignore the hardcore dedicated user base that hangs around here, and the opinions shared here are taken very seriously. But, just keep in mind that there is a much bigger CF world than is present here. Which is why we need the bigger sampling in surveys.
