I suppose you might be one of those people trying to do so
I still say the smartest thing to do is to let Apple market their OS to the PCs....THEN they will gain marketshare (and then we'll figure out OS-X is just like any other OS, its flawed).

I guess that Microsoft marketshare is what makes Windows the product everyone loves to hate. It's the same marketshare the continues to be plagued by viruses and whatever. Oh I suppose marketshare is important but i'm sure everyone will admit that what ever product you need to get the job done that's what you should use. In fact Macs are in many business not very very few as you state. The real world is the world that we all live in and what we use to accomplish our tasks has nothing to do with your reality or marketshare.
Apple dosn't have to rev up marketshare before it will go anywhere especially if going somewhare means ending up where microsoft is.
I's not about markershare. For computer users it's about ease of use and accomplishing the task at hand with out having to deal with hardware and software issues. Apples accomplishes that much better than Microsoft. Thats why Microsoft is always following Apples lead.
In the final analysis both OS have their place when it comes to getting things done and both deserve careful consideration before a decision is made. Marketshare is irrelevant.
