Got on a plane to London this weekend and found four Windows developers
(dot net, etc) I know on the same flight. Sat down with them and one  
grabbed
my iCreate magazine (UK mac mag) which had a MB Air on the cover.  
Serious
drooling over the MBA going on. All four had been to London Apple store
to have a look at them.

The one I know best (a Windows MVP and also organizes a Windows Dev.  
group)
confided that he'd been attending lecture sessions at the London Apple  
store, purchased
an iPhone, and is now seriously thinking of getting an MBA based on
the its coolness effect alone. He's never owned a Mac in his life. He  
is probably
the last person I would have thought would ever get a Mac.

The Mac Lust created by the MBA is a very serious force.
