I've been a mac owner for about four months now and I must say I couldn't be happier. Everything about my old dell laptop drove me insane. The loud fan, the atrocious Vista OS, small touch pad etc. I was recently at a friends house and we somehow ended up talking about how PC's are better than macs. Being a mac lover, I ofcourse defended apple however it was 4 against 1 and I wasn't able to convince them. They explained to me how mac users are Ignorant; They just haven't used a mac before so they're opinions are pretty biased. The things i just love about the mac is the excellent build quality, solid OS, track pad, stable, and just so good looking. But they did make a point, are we as Mac users just really ignorant?

Well yes, i guess we are. We are ignorant of all the crashes, buggy software, millions of virus and constant rebuilding that has to be done on the windows systems in order to keep them even half usable. So i for one will plead ignorant and darn glad about it.

No we are not, however those who bash it without an use of the product whether it be just a brand name or a operating system are the ignorant ones by far. Their unwillingness to have a open mind or to think about the reasons you have listed just show that they will never understand that people choice what they choice because they like it.

Just tell them this, "How does my love harm you? How does my passion bring an end to yours?"

What point did they make? All you said is that Mac users are ignorant...ignorant of what?
