I'd love to know the OS usage stats here and how they differ from HN.
Walking around the CTF room, it looked to be about 1/2 Mac and 1/2 non-mac, with about 1/2 of the non-macs running some unix variant (assuming people aren't running linux with a windows looking window manager or vice versa).
I'd bet there are more Mac users on HN than there are at DEF CON.
There could also be more Windows users if they agree with the line of thinking that says you should run the same system as your targets.
Virtualization.
