The official I hate PCs discussion

It's not my fault if PC users keep displaying the PC mentality.
Like all generalizations there are exceptions. I can think of 2 Mac users I deal with regularly who display the PC mentality. Mind you I don't think they use a Mac by choice, more by circumstance.
So if you use a PC and don't have the PC mentality, good for you. So can you see anything in my writings that makes sense? (Ignoring my writing "style" which apparently offends people who can't cope with it.)
You say: "You're right, your comments were general, but I think they were often a little too general."
What do you want, general or specific?
"Specific" offends.
"Too General" is an oxymoron!
Well I think you're looking at the two extremes. It dosn't have to be either 'you' or 'everyone', in fact things are rarely that clear cut.
And yes, I can see where you're coming from one some points (eg. people using it just because everyone else does), but again that dosn't make it true for everyone.
Newsflash: The Zune and Vista are not compatible!
We in Melbourne, Australia may be across the other side of the planet but news like this is precious. Sorry it's taken a while to post but I had to go change my underwear and wait for my eyes to dry so I could see the keyboard.
This is classic PC Mentality people, do you trust an OS maker that can make both components and have them not talk to each other?
What a farce, it's hilarious for me but it's sad to know that the lemmings and drones will overlook it, accept it as normal and wait for a fix.
Oh, my sides hurt so bad.
And before you suggest I made this up, do a Google on it, better yet...

Microsoft says Zune, Vista aren't compatible.
By Troy Wolverton - Mercury News
Two of Microsoft's newest products don't play well together, a company representative acknowledged Wednesday.
The company's Zune music player, which debuted Tuesday, is incompatible with Windows Vista, the latest version of the company's flagship operating system.
Microsoft released Vista to personal-computer makers earlier this month and expects to have it available for large business customers by the end of the month. But consumers have been able to test out beta versions of the operating system for months now.
Zune users who try to install the music player's software on Vista will get a message saying that the operating system is "not supported.''

"Flagship" they say, sounds more like a sewage barge to me.
(Oh wait, I just made my sides hurt again, oh the pain.)
Can someone please enhance the 'block user' add-on so it actually blocks users from our (comment) view?
At my old age (30+) there's little time left before I croak. I'd love to spend it more efficiently.
Sorry traveljunkie I know I promised you pretty icons in my messages, I forgot.
(Being a PC user I didn't think it was that important for you :-)
People's comments should be taken at face value without the prejudice of knowing their age, sex, creed, religion, colour...
However, I am happy to accept the "sage" tag personally
@mini: with such great taste in cars & women (though I prefer the quattroporte) you can't go wrong
@c-unit: your design skillz far exceed thos of this here little company: http://www.infolink.net.au/site/ourwork.htm
I know I'm getting kinda personal here, but jeez 'W' if that is your work/company isn't it about
time to stop dishing (and eating) your own bullcrap and ask the waitress for the "reality-check"?
That site/work seem living proof that 'owning a mac doth not a designer make' and there
really is no benefit to concurrently running umpteen apps if the end result still resembles 1996
state-of-the-art HTML.
You'd be the last person I'd ask to to teach (lecture) me on 'discriminating taste'... and now I'll
take my own advice and just shut up too.
It's targeted at very small businesses who want less "crap arty farty" (their words not mine) and a simple presence on the web because "these days it's expected".
I must say that site is better than any i could design but that doesnt mean a great deal...
