True dat.

Among creative professionals (graphic design/web/video/print/music)  
Mac market share is far higher than 5%. In the area of professional  
video production, I have heard figures of 50%/50% Mac/Windows market  
share.

As far as Final Cut Pro editors, Mac market share is 100% (because  
they killed the Windows version before release! :-)

In dental office software I doubt Mac has anything close to 5% - I  
would guess more like .1%.
