The PC vs. Mac war

Since I'm interested in buying a Mac in the near future, I've been reading up on the latest Apple news, reviews, etc. It's interesting to see how there are devotees on both sides of the PC/Mac war that will stop at nothing to defend their cause. As I'm reading, I see people making all kinds of unjustified comments filled with all kinds of ridiculousness. In most cases, it seems like the commenter has been burned (one way or the other) and will forever be on a crusade to destroy the reputation of the other. I would have to say that anyone that states that PCs are better in all cases, all the time, or the opposite, is out of control. Clearly each setup has its own set of pros and cons for different purposes.

One specific case was particularly interesting. Kyle and I were checking out a video on YouTube which stated a positive case for Apple. Of course, Windows devotees couldn't just let it sit there without a rebuttal, so there were plenty of responses to choose from. Well, there was one response that was attempting to bash Apple, but the poor soul didn't record any sound. Naturally, Kyle and I needed to let this guy know of his mistakes and left the comment "Shoulda got a Mac, sucka!" on his video blog. Note: at the time, it was the only comment on the video blog. Well, we came back the next day to the same post (just to reminisce about how someone could possibly post a video without sound) and our comment had literally started a war of dozens of comments back and forth....

Simply out of control.
