I love Apple fanbois
Apple ignited the personal computer revolution with the Apple II
And to think, Commodore almost bought them once, oh the hilarity if that had happened.
The Android/Apple war is something I don't quite understand.
Who should I root for?
Remember that email headers can be edited. i.e. I can send an email from whoever I want just by modifying headers.
Is one considered better than the other or is it mostly a matter of personal preference?
I was more of an Atari ST fan.(boy)
See the iPhone thread. Lots info about the smartphone wars in there. I'd like to keep this one as a broader thread about all Apple products for current or aspiring Mac/Apple product owners.
Errr you have loads who openly claim to be an Apple "fan" like the person in question here.The Fanboy / Anti Fan boy thing is getting old.
Ok, I've looked at it before but it is big and reminds me of the Messi vs Ronaldo thread where people argue from pre decided positions.

It is extremely sad to be a fan of a company, something which involves actively rooting for others to fail even if that is detrimental to the whole market.

There is no problem with that.Being satisfied with a product and looking forward to new ones isn't being a fan boy. Its merely a result of being satisfied with a product and looking forward to future upgrades.
There is no problem with that.
Fanbois like possibly the one in question, actively disparage other products. From his feck the Android team, it is pretty clear it is not just about having improvements on his favored gadget but resenting any attempt by a rival to better a technology. The only word to describe such behavior is sad.
I hope Apple release something good. Have a Iphone right now, will change soon. Right now I have narrowed it down to Desire, hopefully a new Iphone will give me another option to consider.
Ok, I only have a netbook right now (MSI Wind) which although I'm very satisfied with, has it's limitations. I am looking at possibly buying a Macbook 13" in a few months but it seems very expensive. Can anybody explain why I should(n't) buy it?
Yes its called brand loyalty through customer satisfaction.
In any case, I'm going to start deleting posts that take this off topic, so lets keep it on topic so we don't end up with another 20 page monstrosity like the iPhone and iPad threads.
CUPERTINO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community:
I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.
I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.
As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.
I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.
I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.
Steve
