Whoa there. No need to get all personal here.

Lots of non-Apple users have difficulties understanding why those who love their Apple products love their Apple products. I'm one of them. My 18 months old laptop has the same hardware in it that today's MacBooks do, but had a lower price tag when it was purchased. Naturally, I have difficulties understanding why anyone in their right mind pays more money for weaker hardware, and when they can't give me good reason for it I point and laugh.

I also find it odd that these people are surprised that they're occasionally mocked for not being able to justify their purchase decision other than by telling me "it's an Apple,so it's better".

But the most odd thing of all is when people who are smart, well informed, and who bought an Apple product after thinking it through and coming to the conclusion that it's the best product for them, lose all their smarts and react like unthinking iSheep when someone asks them to recap their thoughts on why they bought a Mac. It's almost as if asking them to prove that they're not among the KoolAid chuggers turns them into one. Very odd.
