When I attended Black Hat last year, for instance, almost every presenter had a Mac.

Um, no. Two years ago, I sat in a room with two CISO of Fortune 100 F.I.'s, a guy who is a "entrepreneur coach", 2 guys who did Pen Testing on Nukes for DOE and an indy InfoSec consultant who used to have a pretty big role in CERT. We all had macs. I think Infosec experts understand UNIX pretty well, thanks. “A year ago, Apple computer users were mostly design and DTP professionals, photographers and musicians.”
