It is cute the way people caught up in modern mythologies come up with “clever” labels to combat those of us who can see through their nonsense. Al Gore and company call anyone who doesn't go along 100% with his brand of “anthropogenic global warming” a “denier”. Swordmaker calls those of us who do not buy into the Apple mythology, “Apple haters”.
I have been an electronics enthusiast since I was growing up the 1960s and 1970s starting first with electronics kits and plans and moving onto digital micro-computer components as they became available. I remember how exciting it was to move from sliderules to calculators. I was thoroughly enamored with “home computers” when they started coming on the market. I still have a large collection of early home computers and software.
Apple mythologists twist their historical facts and reality at about the same proportion that global warmists do.
