史蒂夫•乔布斯去世三周半后，即10月30日，民意调查网站Poll Position进行了一次全国性的调查，共有1,066名注册用户参与。调查主题为：苹果（Apple）、谷歌（Google）、Facebook，谁是最有前途的高新技术企业。

    投票结果如上图所示：苹果以43.6%的得票率遥遥领先于谷歌（25.9%）和Facebook（9.6%）。

    不出我们所料，18-29岁的年轻人——与iPhone和iPod一同成长的一代人，尤其认为苹果拥有光明的前景，但我们没想到为什么有这么多的共和党人力挺苹果。

    Poll Position的调查是通过电话进行的，误差范围在正负3%之内。关于Poll Position调查的更多细节，请参阅其网站。

    A national survey of 1,066 registered voters conducted by Poll Position on Oct. 30, three and a half weeks after Steve Jobs' death, asked which of three high-tech companies -- Apple (AAPL), Google (GOOG) or Facebook -- had the brightest future.

    As you can see by the results, Apple with 43.6% came out well ahead of Google (25.9%) and Facebook (9.6%).

    We expected 18-29 year olds -- many of them raised on iPods and iPhones -- to see Apple's future as particularly bright. But who knew the company had such strong support among Republicans?
