Well, we kinda already knew that, but it’s good to know that word is getting around. TheStreet’s Jim Cramer explains why Macs are all the rage among college and school going teenagers these days.
According to him, owning a Windows notebook is just not cool anymore—that is, if it ever was in the first place. They’re not even considered computers and “might as well be typewriters to these kids.” Only a Mac, apparently, can be classified as a computer and you clearly don’t have a girlfriend if you’re lugging a Dell around.
Cramer also seems to think that everyone would’ve had an iPhone today had Apple gone with Verizon. Yeah, like they don’t already do. Go check out the amusing video where he likens Apple products to fashion accessories, status symbols and jewelry. Someone seems to like ‘em Apples.

Be wary of a man who tells you not to sell Bear Sterns.
I for one would have an iPhone if it were on Verizon.
I never will own one if Apple stays with AT&T.
