<p>That comic pretty much sums up the experience (although it may not be that epic).</p>

<p>I think you mean:
This comic pretty much sums up the experience for the typical unfunny Apple-bashing computer nerd. </p>

<p>Fact: people who constantly bash Apple are just as pathetic, if not more pathetic, than those who are obsessed with Steve Jobs’ every word.</p>

<p>I didn’t mean it in an “apple-bashing” way. Just pointing out the constant releases and new “generations”.</p>

<p>What was the real difference between the iPhone 3G and the 3GS. And I’m almost certain that the new iPads will have a camera and some other small and useless feature.</p>

<p>Sorry, but any comic with “iPride” in the first few slides is a little too biased.</p>

<p>Believe me, I’m no Apple fanboy. Yes, they release new products without significant upgrades. Then again, so does pretty much every other company on the face of the planet.</p>

<p>Haha. This sums up human nature. </p>

<p>Everyone wants the hip, new and trendy thing, and Apple is great at making and marketing them.</p>

<p>Sure, they’ve produced a huge fan-base, of which, many of these people buy almost every new Apple product (no matter how minor the update. Iphone 3g to 3gs, anyone?), but no one goes to this extreme.</p>

<p>Funny comic nonetheless. </p>

<p>And Pandem, for every mac hater, there is a windows hater (and they generally have the same insults towards windows, as mac haters have towards mac).</p>

<p>I don’t really think there are as many “windows haters”. </p>

<p>More like “I don’t know much about computers and Macs are easy to use, so therefore I don’t like windows.” Along the lines of ignorance, and I mean that in the strict lack of information sense.</p>

<p>“I don’t know much about computers and Macs are easy to use, so therefore I don’t like windows.” </p>

<p>That is, with some adding and mixing of letters, the prime argument for every anti-mac user. At least from my observation.</p>

<p>Come to think of it, I suppose you are right. I don’t see as much bashing of Windows. But then again, there are far less people using non-Windows operating systems (Linux, Mac OS), so it may just be that because there are far fewer Mac users, their mockery of Windows doesn’t seem as escalated.</p>
