Not my quote but sums up Mac users pretty well IMHO. (quote taken from
hardocp.com)

I hate Macs. I have always hated Macs. I hate people who use Macs. I even
hate people who don't use Macs but sometimes wish they did. Macs are
glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy
cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people
who earnestly believe in feng shui.

I wonder why this particular argument always runs and runs. I think its
probably because neither side can think of anything original.

Bit like Mega Drive VS SNES when you were at school - everyone's spent a lot
of cash on what they've bought, and very few people can afford both. Any
admission that the other system does anything better has to be avoided at
all costs. Obviously the SNES was better because it had Contra 3 and Mario
Kart.

Bah, bloody youth. Spectrum vs C64 vs BBC. (BBC had Revs and the original
Elite as well as a decent (for the time) built in programming environment,
so clearly is best. Just don't mention the cost difference...)

cheers,

Megadrive had Sonic. When I was at Uni one guy I shared a house with had
a Megadrive, another had an Amiga, and I had a SNES and Amiga. So we had
the best of both consoles, and used to link the Amigas together with a
null modem cable (hand built by my me...), to play four player Lotus
Turbo Challenge 2. This was the first linked up game I ever played.

Commodore 64 vs Spectrum...

Yeah, we used to hammered and play to the wee hours; Lotus 2 or
Streetfighter 2 on the SNES.

Then I never played linked up games again until I got into Quake 2 DM on
the internet, on my ~48k dial up (eww). I don't know what I'd do if I
had to go back to dial up again...
