Not really. There are lots more pro-Apple threads here for instance than anti-Apple threads. But we see what we want to see as a defensive mechanism.

But, consider, how many Pro-Windows threads do you see? Not too many.

The Pro-Apple threads are people talking about the advances OS X has made (made even more stable by sitting on top of a Darwin Unix kernel), or an upcoming Apple hardware release. When the iPad was announced, the 'experts' derided it as a stupid concept, a product destined for the trash. I pre-ordered mine at 5:15am on the day it was first available. Some people do not understand something, until you smack them in the head a dozen times with the product. I saw it's potential the moment it was demonstrated - and had my cash in hand within 2 weeks from that day. I still use my iPad 1 every single day.

The anti-Mac threads; are not opposed to a breakthrough, or advance OSX - they are an attack against Apple users, or Jobs personally.

That's the difference.

Something most apple don’t see or refuse to see is that they brought it on themselves..there really is a born again mentality to alot of nuvo-Apple users who look to proselytize their new found faith. That is irritating to read constantly...whats more they often spew FUD at others peoples taste in MS.
