3rd poster 3 minutes later calls Mac users "crazy"
4th poster seconds 3rd poster's remarks 2 minutes later.
9th post calls Mac users "insecure fanboys"
So, out of 14 total posts as of this time, (granted a small sample) it's 21% insults against Mac users with a grand total of zero insults against folks who use Windows systems.
Is this really necessesary? I can understand calling Pelosi, Obama, or Biden nuts for being socliast whackjobs, but it's really kind of inappropriate here in this context. Perhaps it might be somewhat understandable if the subject matter of the posted article was making fun of how virus prone windows is or something similar, but it is just a post about coming features of new Macs. Noone is claiming that you're not going to be seeing the exact same processors in systems that run windows.
Can we just cut the name-calling out? The comments are really not constructive, and some of us are just tired of it.
Inappropriate and gratuitous are inappropriate words. Why? I have deemed it so.
As the 4th poster, I’d say if your skin is that thin, you sure dont need to be carving no apple in it, thats for sure. LMAO.

Yep, it’s clear who the real “insecure fanboys” are...LOL!
Macs are gaining marketshare by leaps and bounds. Apple is selling premium systems at premium prices, while the rest of the industry races for the bottom. Who’ll have the better R&D budgets down the road (or now for that matter).
Apple is being managed brilliantly.
Thanks for posting what many of us would like to post. However, we, and you, could just cut and paste the same thing on every thread and it would be true except for the specific posts.
Unfortunately, calling children what they are, children, is rarely effective.
