Very well spoken. It reminds me somehow of dedicated Apple fans who never get tired of comparing their favorite OS to Windows PCs. Isn't it amusing that most of the bashing and comparing happens on Apple-related sites? Same thing now with Palm OS fans. Many feel threatened by external factors they have no influence over. Factors such as PalmSource's recent layoffs and announcement that Cobalt is vaporware. Instead of wondering what might have gone wrong inside the company, fans just go on the offensive and start making abstruse comparisons why Palm OS is still better then let's say Windows Mobile. I am not critizing Palm OS fans. It is a common phenomenon among minority groups feeling obliged to defend something that is not even their own fault.
