People just have to see to believe it.
As its happening at my university. A friend of mine finally got tired of windows and bought himself a 12'' Powerbook and now 2 other guys I know (one of them actualy sells MS laptops, so he's not an ignorant in tech stuff) are planning on selling their laptops to buy a powerbook too, because they saw it working and how gorgeous and clean everything was with the PB. And one of them is selling a Sony Vaio 12'', so, he's not going from a cheap laptop to a powerbook.
Bottom line...Apple should distribute like 5 Powerbooks for free at each university and then all they had to do was to wait. People see it, they ask if they can try it a bit and they fallin love. Simple as that. Sometimes people don't switch because Apple computers are still full of myths.
