Gee, you should get out more. I know at least four here locally, and I 
spend most of my time isolated on a farm. One is a cousin, another a 
neighbor, and the other two are longtime fiends.

One used to be a PC guy, then Linux, and now is an Apple fan. He still 
likes Linux OK, but likes Apple better these days. (Shrug.) His choice. 
He keeps trying to get me to buy a Mac. When I plead expense, he points 
out that there are used/refurbished ones available, and that there's a 
LOT of low-cost/free Apple software around.

Aside from the above former Linux user and my brother, who uses what I 
set up for him, I don't know any other local Linux users personally. And 
quite frankly, I don't have a clue as to what most of the people I know 
use, or even if many use a computer at all.
