im annoyed at apple always calling itself superior WHEN NO ONE BUYS THEM OR THEIR SOFTWARE except for some of the arts and croissant crowd .....

Most of the ads I see and read are from companies who believe they have a superior product. So what?

As to your "no one buys them" comment, how do you explain this:

Beta was a better videotape format than VHS. The fact that it became the standard, does not change the fact that it was inferior (think Microsoft).

I make my living doing illustration and graphic design; have for 30 years. It's how I take care of my wife and son; it is my business. And I like the taste of croissants. I prefer Macs; so what? Does that make me an irrelevant exception that doesn't really contribute to society? Or, I can't be conservative because I use a Mac? Or I must be gay? Sheesh!

every year since the win95 came out, i have heard mac and their legions always bragging about how great and superior they are in terms of hardware and software and ease of use, blah, blah, blah....

If "no one buys them" how do they have "legions" of users (25 million, by the way) as you put it?

apple is the Air America of personal computer world...

Computers do not have political affiliations. Apple, the company, are capitalists, making a good profit for their stockholders and making excellent products.

always saying they are the true leaders

Take a look at Mac OS X, then a look at Microsoft's new OS, and then honestly tell me whose the leader and whose the follower there.

and yet apple folks stick to their guns....

You Windows Moonies are the ones who are over here on every Apple thread, guns blazing.

years of failure after failure and lack of true sales or more apple users

None of this is accurate. See above chart. And what is the converse of "true sales?"

You mistake sales (quantity) with quality. Based on your logic, the Ford Taurus is a better product than a Rolls Royce (no one buys them either). More people voted for Al Gore, therefore, he is the bettere candidate. (see the problem?)

Get a clue, a dictionary with the words quality and quantity, or better yet, lose the envy and be happy with your favorite computer platform. No one here minds if you prefer Windows; why does it bother you so much that we prefer Mac?

And don't say it doesn't, else you wouldn't be here trying to crap in our Easter basket.
