As you can see, I’ve been lurking, and a member, of FR for quite a few years now. From what I’ve read here, there are for more caustic and fanatical anti-Apple Freepers than there are anti-Microsoft posters. A perfect example are our posts on this thread. All one has to do is read and compare our posts. Freepers will notice a striking difference between your comments and mine.

The quote is a stretch and lacking in trying to prove your point. I can easily sight quotes from anti-Apple, or as you like to label them, “Applebot crazies”, to illustrate how fanatical anti-Apple folks are.

FYI, we’ve owned our Mac for about a year now. In other words, my comments here are not motivated by years of experience as a Mac user.

Care to supply any figures to back up your claims?
It's not my fault if you are blind and biased as well as lazy and simply can't be bothered to research the very long list of nasty, caustic anti-Microsoft posts from Applebots on practically every single Microsoft thread going back decades on here and on practically every tech site is it?

A perfect example are our posts on this thread. “

So far, you haven't posted anything worthwhile, apart from insisting that people are “lying and fabricating stories about Apple”, when in fact, Samsung has shown clear evidence showing prior art (in court no less) to back up their claims. Far from bringing up any evidence to counter the facts as stated in the article, you came up with the standard Applebot people are “lying and fabricating stories about Apple” whine.

All one has to do is read and compare our posts. Freepers will notice a striking difference between your comments and mine”

Yup.
My posts was backed by a link to concrete evidence presented in court, yours consisted of calling any statements that counter Apple as “lying and fabricating stories about Apple”.
Guess who is blindly backing a company and trashing any detractors as “lying and fabricating stories” without siting any facts to back it up.

FYI, we’ve owned our Mac for about a year now. In other words, my comments here are not motivated by years of experience as a Mac user”

LOL! First of all, even if that were true, that proves nothing. It's a strawman to say, “Hey, I use Windows PC’s so therefore you can't challenge me when I trash Apple's detractors and call them liars”(like you just did.)
And second of all, how do I or anyone even know know whether you have been using Macs for 10 year or one year? Anyone can say anything on an internet board to back up their position on an issue. That doesn't necessarily make it true does it?
