You could call some computer magazine or e-mail some newspaper computer advice person.
As far as I know PC users are much more common except in certain specialized areas such as education or graphics applications. In a computer store that I recently visited more than 90% of the sofware being sold was for PC.

I beleive you can check out faststats.com a CDC site for all statistics. That may reveal mac users are less likely to have carpal tunnel vs PC user... or something like this. Another site may to Simply ask Jeeves the question.. or try MAC world.
