I think it is quite funny... Rush once said that being a Mac user is much like being a conservative. As soon as poeople find out you use a Mac the insults start flying. "Mac's Suck, You are a loser. Steve is an idiot."

You see it on every Mac thread in this forum.

"Mac's Suck, You are a loser. Steve is an idiot."

Jealousy is a terrible thing.

The comment I hear most at work (where Macs are an underground platform) is:

How did you do that!?

Ha ha! Yup. Just like the RATS. If you dare to have a differing opinion on the supreme upsurpassable BRILLIANCE of Windows and Intel, the knives come out. Even if you fully respect their own OS opinions, they don't care. They must hurt you to feel better about themselves.

Funny. I see the Mac as the liberal computer – based much on hype and sold as a “lifestyle” just like liberal political philosophy. Mac users seem to base their computer selection on feelings not the reality of the situation.

Reality: A computer is a tool, not a lifestyle. A computer is means to an end, not an end in and of itself.

Trace the threads. It sure looks like the oversensitivity, lack of humor, and what looks like blind zealousness comes from our friends on the Mac-side. Like I said, the Mac sure looks like the "liberal computer" to me.
