Are all Mac Users gay guys or women?

When driving on the highway, I sometimes notice, an "Apple" logo, and with it a gay flag/sticker posted on a vehicle. Very rarely do I see a "Windows" Icon. So I thought, do more gay people prefer Apple vs Windows? Of course this is very hard to impossible to assess. And I must say, that the Apple logo on an auto is appealing in any case. Almost a cult! Googleing did not help me find any info. I was even trying to find some sort of survey that one can post on a blog. No luck. But this is what I found. A bit slanted point of view, but interesting. I own an Apple, and will continue to own one even after this one dies. Now if only iPhone would also link up with Sprint, I would be a very happy man!

Note: Notice in the comments section this guy says,
"Perhaps we Mac users are simply the type to take being called "gay" as a compliment. I'm not gay, but I often wish I were."
NOW THAT"S A SWITCH!!

FYI, I have *never* seen a Windows sticker/window decal. Does such a thing even exist? :)

Kind of be redundant, wouldn't it?

If you don't have an Apple logo or a Tux...

Yes it does. I have seen it (rarely) on the back of bumpers.There is one on my office computer.

Back in the days before the Apple logo went "white" I saw many a "rainbow" Apple window sticker with another under it stating "and no, I'm not gay..." Obviously, this was an impression that lots of people got from seeing the stickers, and (at least in the somewhat rural, EXTREMELY conservative area that I live in) was something that people wanted to be absolutely clear about...

Never seen a Windows bumper or window sticker... Who would want to brag about being a Windows user... Seriously... ?? ;-)
