Quimby calls anybody who remotely supports Apple products “fanboy”.

Just repeating a widely used term. Not my invention.

From the register:

Surely nobody – not even the most avid fanboi – now believes that Jobs left "four years of new products" in the pipeline, as his biographer Walter Isaacson reported in 2011. Assuming Isaacson was inspecting Apple's lab in 2010, the first "three years" will soon be up. Which raises the question: is anything left?

Also this from the urban dictionary:

1. fanboi

Someone who is hopelessly devoted to something and will like anything associated with thier particular thing.

I actually like some apple products. I run OSX on my "hackintosh" dell machine.
