No.

I haven't counted but off the top of my head I can think about 25~30 
high priced places that I have been to pretty regularly over the past 
few years.

I live in Tokyo.  People who need them put the expansion chassis in a 
rack but the computers just stand there looking dumb.

Six would be about right for me.  I currently have a four slot Mac 
and a six slot PC the PC is not all that much larger than the Mac. 
It doesn't look as nice but I have them both hidden in closet of a 
separate room so I don't have to listen to the fans so the Mac's 
nicer looks are totally irrelevant.
