Oh how I wish there were more (vocal) Apple users like you. I find the 'war' mentality is usually very strong in the fanboi type, not to say that the anti-Apple specifically pro-open-source group aren't almost as vocal.

The most important thing isn't to belong to a group of users, but to use what you like best. Why should I care what anybody else uses if it suits their needs. Why do so many people think they know what is best for other people to use?

I've used this stance many times when (my brother in particular) gives me a hard-time for having a Windows Phone, or using Ubuntu on my dev machine, etc. etc. But the mocking keeps coming.
