Why do they post here instead of in Windoze groups?
Of course, it is a rhetorical question.


Because we love to bait the Maccie who is so consumed by his OS that he
has melded his ego with it. OS X has nothing to do with it, it's the
Maccies that are the attraction.


This "attraction" is born out of projection on the part of the Windows
users who are so wrapped up in trying to denigrate OSX (despite knowing
it's superior) because they won't lay out the money for a more
streamlined, more trouble-free system. The ego that is tied to the
inferior Windows OS pushes them to do this... which is why there aren't
more Windows users in here... only the ones that display this problem.

So you are saying that it is a money problem?? I don't think so.
My theory:
Most Mac users are just elitist snobs who think, that by conspicuously
spending on something, anything, that is more costly, makes them superior
in
some way.

Of the type of people that regularly post here bitching about the Mac...
well... it's not terribly difficult to be superior. Unless you're Snit,
there's simply no effort involved.

Unable to contain himself any longer, Mr. Carroll gives voice to his
baseless feelings of superiority.

Of the type of people I'm referring to, the entire premise upon which
they come here is based upon their feelings of false pride created by
defining themselves through a product for which they had nothing to do
with it's creation so as to hold themselves in superiority while
projecting this onto Mac users.... this automatically lowers them to a
level of inferiority with respect to character. This is common sense...
which is why we find you and the other half of your brain cell here
challenging it. The same could be said of any Mac user going into a
Windows ng with the that agenda... I don't go into those ng's so I don't
know any of those type of people. You fit this criteria perfectly.

LOL! first you declare yourself superior because of the mass produced
consumer product that you use then you turn around and make the
asinine claim that all who mock you for your declaration are really
engaging in that behavior themselves. Get over yourself, Steve. You're
not that important. However I'm sure there at least three good
disertations for psych grad students in a detailed study of you.

Check back next week to see if he declares Maccies to be the 'Master
Race' and non-Maccies to be 'life unworthy of life'.

Forced to jump to the ridiculous in a feeble attempt to cover up the
reality of why he comes here, Mayor takes yet another stab at pretending
to take the high moral ground. Thanks for your projection.

Firing up his self-proclaimed psychic powers to their maximum, Mr
Carroll claims to know my mind better than I do.
And speaking of projection...have yu read the first paragraph of your
reply, Steve? 8)
