Title: Does any of this sound familar?

Found this article (http://www.macobserver.com/columns/devilsadvocate/2005/20050610.shtml) via Slashdot. Some of it sounds kinda similar to some of what I've seen in this community.

I guess when your favorite platform shifts, all you can do is grumble and shift with it. Or go windows. And you know that option is worse than the shift for many. No, that doesn't sound like any user that I've seen in the mirror who uses this message board. :-)

Yep, but I have a feeling they won't let it ruin them.
