Hehe, most probably! Though I only know 2 people who actually got their Macs from there.
Everyone else (and me) orders online, though I've bought screens and iPods at Bluewater, they can be a lovely bunch
Got a tip for us?

I know of 3 friends that have Macs for sure. 1 of which is in animation and another in media production.
A friend of my sisters who I guess you could say I switched.
I've noticed on facebook a few of my old friends seem to have Macs. I am assuming because they have profile images that look as though they were taken with photobooth.

I know only a handful of people; 2 of which have a clothing company, 3 I go to school with, and hopefully myself soon.. once I pull the trigger.
More and more of my friends. At first it was just myself and my roommate, then it was a friend, then his roommate, then his girlfriend... then two other of our friends (and another who wants one).
Yeah, Apple gets a lot of business once you infiltrate a friend group with a Mac.

Yeah, I realised that about two minutes after I posted this, and I really wanted to change it.
My brother in law uses a Mac at at work (video production) and is about to get an iMac at home.
I have a co-worker who bought an iMac about 3 months before I got mine.
I've tried to talk 2 or 3 people into a Mac but they wound up buying windows pc's...

Of my close friends I like only my room-mate and my friend Heather are the only people I regularly see with out Macs.
I know about 10 people that use a Mac.
Oh, yeah, and I made my dad switch to a MacBook Pro. (There's only one Windows PC left in the house, it's the one we call the "Main" computer. I wan't my parents to switch to a 20" iMac insted of that peice of junk we have). Windows, upphhfff...

People i know about 35.
Friends about 24 (lots of my friends do graphics + illustration, oddly enough I, Chemical Engineer, was the first to get a Mac)
Macs are like viruses, seriously they spread from person to person, as a direct result from me buying mine there have been about 6 purchases which in turn will probably lead to many more purchases down the chain.

i can't come up with an exact number, but it's more than 10 and less than 20. i'd say fifteen sounds about right. it's certainly smaller than the number of pc users i know.
Just about all of my friends use macs.
I even got my ex-boyfriend to convert to OS X, and he was a diehard PC user. Though he does switch to XP a lot to play games still.
I haven't been able to convert my mom or sister just because they insist on buying cheap computers all the time.

1. One - me.
2. Zero.
I know precisely zero people in real life that use a Mac. Most people use Windows XP, a few use Linux.

I don't know a whole lot of people who are currently mac users.. I think... there are only... like, 5-6 people around me who're currently using macs? And I'm the only full-time mac user in my family. :\
Nearly everyone I know uses a Mac. I only know about two or three people who use PCs- and they say they're switching soon.
