Actually, Dvorak was not commenting on Apple Fanboys ... he was commenting on other (professional?) writers (and editors in charge of them) who had gone off the deep-end in writing reviews that sounded like promotion of Apple iPad and which was all out of proportion to the evidence they brought in writing to prove the superlatives expended. There is some truth to that.
But why Dvorak had to waste his electronic breath on the topic is an entirely other issue. Perhaps that's what makes him a columnist.
