Apple omitting truths



Mac is pretty much lying in this commercial. "...You are number one on college campuses."

So, the single best statistic i could find for mac is here,"This year, the University's[Princeton University] Student Computer Initiative reportedly sold more Macs than PC's, with 60 percent of students choosing a Mac, up from 45 percent just last year. Students were offered a choice of Dell, IBM and Apple computers." http://www.macrumors.com/2007/10/05/mac-marketshare-at-universities-booming/

The problem is... That is the single best statistic i could find. and that was only for one single college. In fact, all the other statistics i find support EXACTLY the opposite. Even on that website, that is pro mac, they only have one single example that supports this theory, but 3 other examples(on the same site) prove otherwise.

Seriously, I want to know where Apple got this statistic. If they are going to make bullshit claims then they should have a source for this information.

At my college for networking and programming, only one single student had a mac and the rest had windows. In Mac's defence though.... that one kid with the mac was smart, lol =P. 1 out 54... that's one hell of statistic. Could someone please show me where they got this statistic
