The Cider Press #001 - Ladies Prefer Macs

By E. Christopher Clark | Monday, October 13, 2008

Two girl share a Macintosh laptop on a college campus

The first installment in a new column, where we’ll crush a hot Apple news story down to the sweet, sweet nectar of a single paragraph.

The Unofficial Apple Weblog reports that 43% of college women prefer Macintosh computers. Of course, the study they’re quoting involved the surveying of a whopping seven students at a single college in British Columbia, but let’s just ignore that. Because, after all, announcing that any old study has found that women prefer any old thing provides the perfect excuse for featuring a photo of a hot chick (like, say, Gisele) posing with said thing. And pictures of hot chicks certainly don’t hurt us when it comes to Google-based referrals, now do they? Ugh.

I’ve been using a Mac since graduating from Dear Old Bradford. Which just proves how smart I am, right? (It can hardly be a coincidence that the SPAM-destroying robot requests me to type “right22.")

@Bethany - You are very smart! I only wish I’d been willing to make the leap back then. I suffered with PCs for too long.

@Meleah - Yes, I do. grin That video still makes me smile.
