i love it.
i was at the pub last night and there was a debate going on in the corner about the ps3, it went on for about 3 hours and things were starting to get heated up. very funny.

Well, I must admit, I am Anti-Sony.., but then again, I didn't just decide to go Anti-Sony for no apparent reason one day. I had a lot of bad experiences with the PSP, and that finally made me flip. Not to mention, they are a very gredy company...

You're probably thinking... *You're ranting again*, but I have every reason to

As NPB2K7 pointed out, it's part of human nature to form groups and compete. But when this is done, it's usually due to a very good reason.

I know what you are saying here as I am a PC person who (for no apparent reason) does not like Apple Macs. This is no more than a bit of friendly rivalry that has been going on for years.

There is nothing wrong with a bit of friendly rivalry but some people take it to the next level and start being rude and aggressive towards their rival and that's when it can start to get needlessly nasty.

Thankfully things around here tend to stay on the friendly rivalry level.

The best cure for console rivalry is to own all three (same goes for mac and pc too)

Funny you should say that, my old boss was always dead against anything to do with Macs... now he has a PC and MAC in the house and has managed (some how) to get Mac OSX running on his IBM laptop!!!

Mac's are f*cking brilliant; what's not brilliant are the dribbling retards who buy them thinking they make them look cool.

This is a prime example of what I was talking about.

Disliking something (for whatever reason) is one thing but describing some Mac users as "dribbling retards" is rude and offensive and simply not true and is what I would call Mac Bashing.

I know it's what you're talking about; doesn't make it less true.

Go to the Apple shop in London. You'll see what I mean.
