My observation is Mac users tend to be the younger generation, students for instance, trendy, supposedly arty (Mac was good for graphic design, I was told), or alternative-want-to-be's -- they want to be different from dull business people with black IBMs with 3 year warranty.
In a graduate students' reading room in a Canadian university, I actually found 80% students using Mac, predominantly the white model. In the undergraduate population, one can see more netbooks and other cheaper brands.
