	the JoshMeister's Apple/Macintosh Evangelist Site
		On countless occasions, the press has used sensationalism to try to convince viewers that Apple's doomed and that the Macintosh platform is destined to go the way of tubes and punch cards.
		Apple's the one with the amazing operating system, the best processors available, and the highest quality computers you can find.
		Apple even has a whole section of its Web site explaining why to switch and how to easily make the transition to the world's best platform, and includes tutorials and testimonials to boot.

	Evangelism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The word evangelist comes from the Koine Greek word ευαγγελιον (transcribed as "euangelion") via Latin "Evangelium", as used in the canonic titles of the four Gospels, and thus The Evangelists are the authors of the four Gospels -- traditionally known as Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John (a.k.a.
		Sometimes, the regular minister of a church is called an evangelist in a way that other groups would typically use the term pastor.
		In common parlance, the title of evangelist is most easily associated with those who lead large meetings like those of Billy Graham, possibly in tents or existing church buildings, or those who address the public in street corner preaching, which targets listeners who happen to pass nearby on the street.

	Technical evangelist - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A technical evangelist is a person who promotes the use of a particular product or technology through talks, articles, blogging, user demonstrations, recorded demonstrations, or the creation of sample projects.
		The word evangelism is taken from the context of religious evangelism because of the similar recruitment of converts and the spreading of the product information through the ideological or committed; hence, for instance, open source evangelism.
		This usage was pioneered by Guy Kawasaki in Apple Computer's marketing of the Apple Macintosh (see Apple evangelist).

	Robert Scoble - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Besides blogging, Scoble is part of the Channel9 MSDN Videos team producing educational and evangelist mini-films targeted towards students and professional developers.
		His mom worked for Apple Computers, building Apple II's at home, too, so he learned how to soldier a motherboard together when he was 11.
		According to Steve Sloan (Information Technology Consultant at SJSU help desk) during his study in university "he was a Mac Evangelist and he was not afraid to install all kinds of buggy beta software and weird hacks on the old Apple computers other people used to get real work done".

		After the Lisa, Apple began work on a similar but less expensive computer to be called the Macintosh.
		At one time, Apple evangelists were actively engaged by the company, but this was after the phenomenon was already firmly established.
		This strategy is intended to reach those who are hostile to evangelists and unlikely to accept an offered tract, by appealing instead to their curiosity.

	Guardian Unlimited Technology \| Technology \| Behind the magic curtain
		Apple Macintoshes are only rarely seen in corporate environments, and most software companies don't even offer Apple-compatible versions of their products.
		To put it another way, Apple is just bit larger than Cadbury-Schweppes and about the same size as Nike or Marks and Spencer in terms of annual sales.
		I believe it is one of the most important aspects of Steve Jobs's impact on Apple: he has little or no patience for anything but excellence from himself or others.

		Apple Computer wasn't worried that their first Macintosh computer wasn't good back in the early 1980s, or that it wasn't everything to everybody.
		Kawasaki, the 42-year-old Apple fellow and chief evangelist for Apple Computer said his rules are rather simple.
		He said Apple changed the rules of the game when it put out its first computer in the early 1980s and boldly declared it would increase the knowledge of whoever used it.

		Apple has yet to comment or release a patch, but in the meantime, we'd urge Safari users to disable the "Open 'safe' files after downloading" option in General pane of Safari's preferences.
		When Mac OS X emerged, though, Apple set out to supersede this architecture with those obnoxious little file extensions that appear, visibly or otherwise, after a period in the name of the file, along with a complicated series of strategies for locating the associated application.
		It has also been observed that Apple's Mail suffers from the same behavior as the Finder - that is, when this file is sent to you as an email attachment, Mail shows you a JPEG icon (as well as the.jpg extension), but opens the file in the Terminal if you double-click it.

		This is due to many things including the steadfast loyalty of Apple's customers--and EvangeListas are the most steadfast of the steadfast.
		The original purpose of EvangeList was to counteract the negative news about Apple and Macintosh, and I believe that EvangeList has served its purpose--fantastically, as a matter of fact.
		Apple itself has a biweekly mail list that covers topics such as new product info, software updates, third-party info, special offers, invitations to seminars & events, and customer stories.

		Apple's consistently making money, sales are up, revenues are up, developers are getting a clue that they should develop for the Mac again, or new developers are realizing that other's shortsightedness is an opportunity for THEM, and Apple products are "cool" again.

	How to Change the World: The Art of Evangelism
		It means that the evangelist totally loves the product and sees it as a way to bring the “good news.” A love of the cause is the second most important determinant of the success of an evangelist--second only to the quality of the cause itself.
		For example, the safe first step to recruit an evangelist for the environment is not requiring that she chain herself to a tree; it's to ask her to start recycling and taking shorter showers.
		Evangelists know their stuff, so they never have to tell a lie to cover their ignorance.

		Apple would not comment on its marketing strategy, but the role of secrecy and speculation in building excitement for the company's launches is undeniable.
		Apple's marketing success is driven by "the products and the anticipation of those products; the way it makes you feel to know that some sort of Christmas is happening next week."
		"Apple needs to let the marketplace know that even though they are a brand that is built on the enthusiasm of its audience, the audience can't run away with the farm."

		Apple doesn't have to evangelize this, the spyware vendors and IE did it for Apple.
		Both of those are aspects of how to market Apple to potential switchers, but I don't like negative campaigns ("Vote for Kerry, because he's not Bush!" -- look how that went), and Apple's core strength is not how inexpensive it is, but how much you can do with what you spend.
		If I were a Mac evangelist -- which I don't believe I am* -- I wouldn't be basing a campaign on why Microsoft stuff sucks (that's so Michael Spindler), or how cheap the Mini is (that is also so Michael Spindler, now that I think about it).

		Unfortunately, even though the Apple store describes the card as being “ideal for Power Mac G5 Dual…” it is not compatible with my dual-1.8.

		This is easily the worst work Apple has released in my very long memory of the Mac business.

	Apple - User Groups - Breaking Fast with iMac and iPhoto
		During User Group University, Guy Kawasaki, the original Apple Evangelist, offered advice on building a better user group, organizing groups around a particular cause, and making user group participation a safe first step for non-Macintosh owners.
		iPhoto, he said, is “the final component in Apple’s digital hub strategy — the application everyone was waiting for.” With digital camera sales growing every year, it was important for Apple to introduce what is known as “the missing link,” an application that makes it easy to save, organize, and share digital images.
		And David Roemer, from Apple Student Core at Emory University, thought it was “nice to learn the specifics behind what’s announced at the keynote and get to see why Apple made certain decisions.”
