The twin cities are known for their hipster movement. I suspect that is what is driving mac adoption over a technological choice like in the bay area.


Please don't use the word 'hipster' and expect to be taken seriously. So many groups of people have been tagged with it that it's completely meaningless.


Hipster has a meaning, even if it only describes what it isn't. It's much like Christianity. If you say you are a Christian all you're really saying is that you're not an Atheist. Hipster has the same symbolism, you're essentially saying what you're not. Hipsters of almost all stripes tend to progressive and independent in some way. It could be related to their religion ( http://www.twloha.com/ ), culture, fashion, or politics.
