I know at Acadia, there would be a literal flood of Mac purchases if the
prices went down. Almost every department wants a Mac, but when it comes
to the time to buy a micro for a department, price is the winner (i.e.,
PC clones). We're making small inroads lately, very small, and a price
decrease could really turn the tide on PC clones.
