It might surpise you to know that PC owners feel the same way (assuming I have interpreted your confusing sentence the way you intended). I have no idea how you justify your existence in your own mind, but to me you and golden eagle are the same bird.
JS1138, Have I insulted YOU? Have I said that you have a "little ego"? Have I claimed you are "gay" because of your choice of computer? Have I insulted you about your choice of computer? Have I even so much as posted a "Get a Mac" comment in a Windows or PC thread? I don't think so. I have criticized the OPERATING SYSTEM... not the users.
From what I have seen, most Mac users who do comment in PC or Windows threads do not attack the users either. That seems to be a tool of the people who attack Mac users. At most, they make a recommendation on how to end the problems the Windows users are having.
And what is so confusing about that sentence? "They (referring to the 240 members of the FreeRepublic Mac Ping list) did not ask to be members of the Ping list to be insulted about their choices of computers." Looks exceedingly clear to me.
I have no idea how you justify your existence in your own mind. . .
And finally, we have another ad hominem attack, implying that my existence is somehow offensive.
