25 years ago my college campus had two computer labs filled with PCs. One room was all PC-XT (I just dated myself)...the other had PC-AT with SVGA color monitors. We had just two Mac units. We had two devoted Mac kids who rarely relinquished the Mac systems...so the majority of us concentrated on the PCs.
90% of the two-year curriculum focused on PCs. Mac had Photoshop, but PC had CorelDraw at the time - and the course was heavy on technical illustration instead of photo rendering. It wasn't until long after college that PC's started catching up in photo capability to the Macs. But when they did, I was thankful I knew them inside-out.
I've never forgotten that ratio. Would I like a Mac someday...perhaps. I'd give it a whirl. Might even like it. But these days I'm not willing to shell out the green for it.
