Are these perhaps apple events?
But seriously, that numbers seems hugely exagerated, at least from the events I have been at. He is probably talking about a specific field for these talks, but this is quite a silly statement imo.
- kayoone 10y agowhen i go to startup events/meetups it's not uncommon to see 80% Apple laptops.
- Insanity 10y agoI have not been at events related to startups. Thank you for giving some insights into where they might use that many apple laptops. The events hosted by my former university have a _few_ macs, but mostly I see people running Linux or Windows. And then there are the microsoft-oriented events, but it is safe to say these do not count here :-)
- therealmarv 10y agoGo to USA, maybe some Google conferences (or look at Google employees): You will mostly see only mac people!
- LanceH 10y agoit would be interesting to know the breakdown by OS for people who bought their own.
- chrisdhal 10y agoAt my local Groovy users group if people bring laptops the vast majority are Mac. At the last Groovy US conference virtually everybody had Macs (as in a non-Mac laptop stood out). These aren't Apple conferences or even startup meetings, these are real users.
- vorg 10y agoI guess it makes sense that the people still using a decaying language like Apache Groovy would be the same people slow to switch to a better OS.
