Some of them are. But not all.

You have cult Microsofties, and you have cult OSS users too.

One thing is pretty clear however; The department that does the best work over at Apple is it’s marketing department.

Without that, they’d be lost. Sure, a lot of their products are good, but most don’t justify the prices apple charges.

Sorry, I have to disagree. Apple's marketing department is the media. They will marvel over anything produced like it is revolutionary even though multiple other products exist that offer more capabilities.

Not to defend Apple, but it doesn’t seem right that the Microsoft browser is IE8 and not IE7. IE8 is in beta and is not scheduled for public release for two weeks or so.

Many Apple users are a bit taken. Reminds one of Prius drivers doesn't it?
