"This is what it is, and not all mac fans are like this - but many are. Whatever Apple puts on the market they will buy."

Same for Windows, Linux, etc. It used to amaze me the level of devotion to Acorn computers during the 90s, when they were sinking fast in terms of market share. It took years to convince my boss to buy PCs instead, despite Acorns often being 2x more expensive.

I drive a car because it gets me from A to B. I use a Linux server because it's secure and doesn't eat resources. I do Windows consultancy because it pays the bills. I use a Mac because I like it and it's a productive environment. We should ignore the fan-boys because they'll never change, and articles like this one certainly won't change them.
