Why do you need to be an ass? We celebrate computers every single day. Is it unreasonable to acknowledge a brand that many many professionals feel emotionally attached? Did you complain when we were celebrating VAX, Atari, Commodore, Walkman, PlayStation 2?

Mac brought to the mass many things we take for granted today -- graphical interface, mouse, all-in-one form factor, SSD, etc.

Once popular brands -- IBM, Compag, Gateway, DEC, Sun -- are gone. Mac is still here and going strong. Not remarkable at all?
