My day job is at a company that occationally has meetings with Big Clients™.

Yesterday there was one such meeting and I had the privledge of overhearing one of the most illustrative conversations I have heard in my life. It went like this:

Man in Suit #1: "So I just switched from PC to Mac and I'm really liking it."

Man in Suit #2: "Really? I've been PC for ever. I hear that email isn't as good on Mac. Is that true?"

/me trys with herculean fortitude to prevent spontanious combustion.

But seriously, there is nothing anyone can really say to that so I just quietly walked away. These are people who make loads of money, have fancy conservative clothes, actually believe advertisements and are predominantly white men. This is what we are up against.
