The way I see it, there are the exact same two types of people on both sides.

In the “people who use PCs” corner, there are: technologically clueless people who only use PCs because they’ve never used anything else or they’re too cheap to shell out the cash, and really techy people who moan and whine about Macs because of “proprietary software” or “no right-click.”

In the “Steve Jobs Fan Club” corner, there are: technologically clueless people who only use Macs because they’ve never used anything else or just like the “user-friendliness,” and really techy people who say that “OSX’s UNIX frame make Macs more secure”, while at the same time point out “dual-boot capabilities to provide the same options PCs do.”

It’s two sides of the same coin. So really, can’t we all just get along and say that Macs are just the prettier, spendthrift siblings of the more austere, down-to-business PCs?
