I was quite surprised to see the large number of Mac laptops at

...You know, now that you mention it, I was also quite impressed
with how many macbook pros there were in room as well. That would
be good to informally track I think :
what tools(laptops) do NANOG folk tend to use?
Macbook Pro (all of IANA (with one recent exception) use Macs of one
form or another).
as this data might help SW dev types to target their netTools
distributions to mac platforms more quickly.
That would be nice.
In the good ole days it seemed like 99% were PCs & maybe a couple
were reinstalled with some form of unix,
I remember the 'good old days' a bit differently -- folks were indeed
using PCs (Digital HiNote Ultras and hten Sony Vaio 505TXs) but
reinstallation was the norm. Maybe it was just to crowd I hung out
with...
