And these ones happen to be Apple lovers…. eww (not aimed at you Anthony, these people go beyond the sensible)

Commenting on an article about how Apple has lost a tribunal (in Australia) about a trademark/product name DOPi vs their iPod (and then it continued on with more of Apple’s bullying tactics that, when Microsoft used them, broke Microsoft up…), some Apple fan wrote this:

Yet another column that is obviously biased against Apple. I wouldn’t be suprised if this article and IR Australia were funded by M$, probably the whole $MH. They would do anything to take down Apple because they know that Apple are the most innovative and look after their customers properly. Like when my iPhone stopped working recently, I thought it was because the battery had died. But the technician at the Genius bar told me that it was because I had plugged it into iTunes on a Windows PC. You fail again M$ and Steve Baldmer haha!!

Simply because the article advocates the small businesses which have been nearly destroyed by Apple’s bullying tactics, this guy believes that it’s Anti-Apple. STUPID. He then goes on to claim that IR Australia (a governmental body) and the Sydney Morning Herald are funded by Microsoft. EVEN STUPIDER YOU BIG IDIOT!! Government bodies are funded by private companies. For one good reason. TO Remove Bias. I have this distinct feeling that guy doesn’t either a) live in Australia; or b) know anything about Australia, despite living in it. Proof, one again, that he is stupid. And finishing it off, he tells a story of when his iPhone died (not, the iPhone has had more complaints and problems related to it than any other phone on the market for some reason… probably because more people use it?) and he took it to a technician who obviously doesn’t know his stuff, he was told that because he plugged his iPhone into a Windows PC and used it’s iTunes program, that crashed his phone. THAT IS THE STUPIDEST THING I’VE EVER HEARD. Apple purposely designed it that they were inter-operable YOU BIG DOPE!! And Microsoft have no blame with that. It was Apple’s product that broke down, Windows doesn’t interact with it except to install drivers and say “Hey, it’s plugged into your computer!!” Idiot….

Following that, I find it stupid how people go “Oh, I should buy an Apple computer because it’s safer, no viruses, like, you know?” You’re just as stupid as the others. The reason there are no viruses, is because there’s no point! “No point, because it’s so strong and safe?” No. Because, compared to Windows based computers (and Linux based servers), No One uses them, therefore, what is the point of creating a virus, if no one is going to get hit by it? If you check the Apple update servers, they send out just as many updates for security flaws as Microsoft does, it’s just that Microsoft tells you that you’re getting the updates, and what they’re for, and that everyone else has a Microsoft product, so everyone knows about it. Stupid people…

But if I start yelling at all these stupid Apple fanboys (and girls) who one said upon getting his iPhone and then going to the Apple Forums “I’m so happy to become part of the Apple Community” (uh, hello, you’ve bought a product from a company, and haven’t even used it yet, or so you said. And what community. What about you local neighbour hood. What, is the Apple support forums to good for them? silly person), I’d have to start yelling at the stupid Windows fanboys and girls, except I don’t know where to look for them, and I can’t be bothered, because I don’t hear much about them, because they don’t seem to go yelling it out to the world that they are fanboys and fangirls of Microsoft like the fans of Apple do… seriously now.

And note, of the people I know personally, not just through their internet personality, who use an Apple Computer, none of you are those ‘Fanboy’ or ‘Fangirl’ types, so you don’t have to worry about my thinking you stupid (at least for that reason =P nah, just kidding).
