This doesn't mean that all Apple users are deluded Job-Followers. Some of my best friends (who are diehard Apple users) are open-minded enough to consider other points of view when it comes to computing. I actully have a friend who admits to using a PC emulator on his Apple computer because he (and I quote), "Can't get the applications he wants through Apple".
SO, I guess there is hope for them yet...

That seems odd.
You're saying that your friends think they're better than you because they use Apple products?
Is this something that they say to you? It certainly isn't a common sentiment among any Apple users that I know, in several countries.
I use MacOS, Linux, and Windows. I also follow Blackberry news closely because a relative has one.
I haven't found any of those communities to be any worse than the others. MacOS and Windows fanboys, OpenSource zealots, Crackberry addicts... they're all the same. Perhaps Windows fanboys are a bit more obsessed with actually attacking other platforms; but I think that's because they're the majority more than anything else. Windows users can attack every MacOS user they see and have almost-normal lives; but if a MacOS user attacked every Windows user they saw, they'd get nothing done!
