Mac Envy / Windows Envy / Eliminating Envy is a Step to Buddha-Nature

July 30, 2008 1:42 PM

From this to this - when Windows people are left out it's justified, when Mac users are left out it's a tragedy that must be addressed. Note: tongue firmly in cheek, I know these are two different users. I'm just feeling snarky.

You didn't get the memo about the MeFi Holy Trinity did you?

Apple, Radiohead and Roger Ebert.

You insult any of these at your own peril.

Don't worry, we linux users are used to peering in from the cold.

Um, whatever. Whenever a post is made about a single platform app complaints appear. Mac or Windows.

Can we close this, as it appears to be a poorly thought out invitation for a Mac vs. Windows fight that happens once a month anyway?

This seems like the setup for round like #27 or so of a big, pointless fight, so, yeah, closing her up.

Also, vi > emacs.
