It’s my observation that it is Mac users who almost always start trashing Microsoft first. If you got a Mac good for you. Just don’t start trashing PCs because you don’t like them. There are plenty of FReepers who are perfectly happy with their PCs.

If you count the comment "Get a Mac" as trashing, then you might have an argument. Several years ago I did a statistical analysis of Mac and PC thread comments. The negative attacks from PC users outnumbered the reverse from Mac users about 9 to 1, and the level of nastiness and virulence was far higher from the PC users. Why not count the number of ad hominem attacks just in this thread from PC users like Blue Highway, crazieman, etc., and then count the number of ad hominems from Mac users. Look at the level of nastiness and virulence. I think you will not find the Mac users anywhere NEAR what is coming from the PC side.
