On October 22, Microsoft will unleash the much-anticipated Windows 7. After the commercial disaster that is Windows Vista, it is believed the new release will turn the tide for the world's biggest software maker. A lot of people also believe it will put a halt to Mac OS X's growth, but I personally think we need to remember the timeless quote form Steve Jobs: "We have to let go of the notion that for Apple to win, Microsoft has to lose."

How many cities in Australia, outside of metropolitan centers on the coastal regions have population densities that would justify a Mac store?
It has nothing to do with population. Even the capital cities (between 2 and 5 million population) only have a handful of Mac resellers (mostly concentrating on the professional graphics market). My local university campus has nearly 35,000 students and staff. The campus computer shop has absolutely zero Mac hardware or software. I have seen no more than half a dozen Macs on campus during the past three years.

The closest Mac store for me in the US is nearly 300 miles away [Seattle].
