Like moths drawn to the light, Apple Microsoft haters are irresistibly attracted to any thread having to do with Apple Microsoft . The Apple Microsoft Haters NEED to hurl insults at Apple Microsoft users and Apple Microsoft products—they can’t help themselves.

It works both ways, in case you haven't noticed.

“...It works both ways, in case you haven’t noticed.”

Wow, in post 9 I was responding to this language: “...Apple’s user base are crackpot cultists....”. In doing so I did not “hurl insults” at Microsoft users. I do not take shots at Microsoft products or users of Microsoft products. My belief is “different strokes for different folks” and I certainly don’t “hate” either Microsoft or Microsoft users.

But if it makes you feel better believing that I hurl insults at Microsoft users, go for it. But you are, in fact, distorting reality when you believe that.

in a way it does, but if you look at just about any apple thread, you'll see that many of the posts start out with insulting Mac users and degenerate from there. I suspect that is because so many windows supporters have little, if any actual experience with apple products in general, and Macs in particular, that they really don't have much else substantial to say. The opposite is not true. I dispise MS-Windows, but it comes from much pain and frustration on my part. Having personally investested countless hours in it, I have no problem commenting on it.

Btw, I'm not an Apple geek, since I don't actually own any of their stuff other than a 3rd person handmedown iphone 4. I prefer to be known as a unix bigot if you please.
