    Shock!! Horror!! Gasp!!

    Stats produced by leading internet porn site Pornhub reveal that a disproportionately large number of visitors to their site access their fleshy delights using Macintosh PCs!

    Although the majority of visitors accessing the site through desktop/notebook PCs (85%) are running some flavour of Windows, it should be remembered that Windows PCs account for more than 90% of the installed base for such computers at the moment.

    About 11% of desktop visitors to Pornhub use Macintosh PCs, despite the fact that this is far in excess of the Apple installed base, estimated by some to be only about 6% of PCs/notebooks at present.

    Interesting!

    I'll be very suspicious of the next less-than-firm handshake I receive from a Mac user. :)

    The lack of privacy in today's world's a bitch, isn't it?

    I appreciate my macbook for its reliability and speed. I appreciate Pornhub for these same reasons.

    Interesting but I don't think they've catered for all of the masses of windows pcs that are corporate/business terminals. Those terminals would be disproportionately more windows based, and not using porn sites.

    ...simply because they're the only ones getting away without getting a virus on the way!

    Porn can be appreciated so much more a Mac screen due to their superior quality.

    Retina-Oprimised porn. I'm sensing a gap in the marketplace here.

    Are you insinuating something? :mad::mad:

    I found it on a blog while accessing a sports site, actually.

    And thought it more credible to cite the original source, helpfully provided by the blogger.

    Honest ;)

    No insult meant for you.
    I should have put the fifth word of my post in italics, bad taste but I'm very easily amused.
