+1 your view of Android fans' probable reaction to Amazon. The android fanboy doctrine tells us that Android is all about freedom and openness-the unfenced range instead of " walled gardens" . They suspect (rightly, IMO) that Android is about to depart from the scriptures in a big way and set up the its own walled garden on the open plains of Android. They are already preparing to condemn the heretics that may stray into that forbidden garden and eat of the orange fruit therein .
Merely preferring their products doesn't make you a fanboy. I know Apple fanboys. It's a whole different level.

Honestly I can understand the allure of taking an "anti-" stance after being subjected to fanatics of any persuasion. Fire with fire, and so forth.

But yeah it's kinda of funny to think that Amazon will cause there to be a triangle of hatred. Apple fanboys vs. Amazon fanboys vs. Android fanboys. It's a triple-A triangle..and hey the letter 'A' is almost kind of a triangle. I think this means something. The Trinity. Maybe it's a sign of the Apocal- omg another A.
