Honest answer from my viewpoint.
1) Gmail user may not be planning on living here long, he likes gmail portability I may hire him and he move to Florida next week.
2) Gmail user may not have a home or at best not a home computer and very good chance he doesnt have home net access, he may go to local library to access internet. I will give him a laptop but he will need to have home net access to survive in my company.


Again, MOST FOFC members will skew to the higher end of intelligence, and therefor typically skew to the higher income end as well. I and many others are often hiring on the other end. I hired a 19 year within the last year who had never owned, NOR CLAIMED TO HAVE EVER KNOWN PERSONALLY ANYONE who had a home PC. Don't forget there is still a non-net world....

Plus a stated I think Google is the debil.
