Notice they fail to mention the top-selling PC (the iMac)? Notice they don't even talk about the G4???? CNN has been doing this for ages now, excluding Mac or Unix-oriented hardware and software from their "Top 10 _____" lists, all at the expense of consumers. Let them know that Mac users are people too! Send them feedback at: http://www.cnn.com/feedback/scitech.html
Make sure that CNN doesn't just ignore the millions of Mac users who are _somebody_!

You have to understand that it's not CNN that's writing that story, it's PC World and through whatever agreement they have with CNN they get it posted there as well. I don't deny that CNN is rather biased towards Microsoft (remember when they used to have everything in QuickTime) or that they never give Apple very good coverage, but in this case it's PC World at "fault", and we can't really blame PC World for not featuring Macs!
