Mac users have, in my experience, a lot in common with sect members. They are not pragmatic in searching for solutions to specific problems, but they defend the Mac cult for its own sake. Mostly, they spend their time demonising the opposition (first IBM, now Microsoft) and evangelising for their more and more irrelevant sect.

A wintel PC is a tool for a purpose (and all workmen curse their tools a lot). A Mac is an altar of worship, that coincidentally can be used to perform certain tasks.

This guy doesn't know what he is talking about. PC users are a lot more cultist than Mac users... Proof? Most Mac users need to use PCs from time to time, they keep deciding the Mac is better, most PC users are forced to use PCs and never try anything else... They are ignorant, even about Windows. I use Macs at home, and Windows at work, I am, easily, the best user of Windows... People call me with questions about an OS I don't use by choice!

He is thinking about a Mac that doesn't exists anymore and he hasn't read more about the issue. Anyone trying Mac OS X for a month or two will have a hard time going back to Windows, though a lot of people will need to because developers still don't see economic advantage in publishing Mac products. Don't take my word for it, read what the CTO of Infoworld says about this.
