If you can’t get by with an abacus then you’re just not doin’ it right.

Wow!
I’ve seen plenty of flame wars here at Free Republic.
But who knew Techie nerds could get the tighty-whities all in a bunch?

I’ll believe it when I see it. And I got a buck that says I ain’t gonna see it.

This would seem to be common sense. When someone comes here with a tech question, they are looking for HELP from a community with a lot of expertise and wisdom. So the endless “you should just get_____ fill in the blank instead of what you’re using” posts are not only not helpful, but insulting to someone who asked an honest question.

I'm with you on that. Valid technical and feature discussions are useful. Flame wars are not. I've been around online forums since the days of FIDOnet and 300 baud Hayes external modems, and later Usenet. I've never seen a useful flame war, never seen anyone win one.
I'm an un-abashed Linux fan. But I've been known to say nice things about Windows 7 (Yes, I bought a retail copy and installed it along side Ubuntu), and I have an iPod touch.
In the end, it comes down to this: use the right tool for the job. We all have to realize what we consider the right tool for a particular job may not be the right tool when evaluated by someone else's criteria and priorities.
