Okay, this guy is a complete idiot. Seriously, I cannot believe the newspaper published this terrible article.

And I quote,
"If nothing else, Mac users are passionate about their computers. They believe Macs are easier to operate and don't require as much maintenance. And Macs are better for graphics and videos -- or so I'm told. I have always used PCs so I don't really know if Macs are indeed superior."

How can you actually set out to write about something you've never used? I don't even know where to begin on this guy.

You have to take stupid people with a grain of salt. If you strongly disagree with the guy, simply write a letter to the editor saying that the contributer doesn't know what he's writing about. That's all you can do. And I'm sure once the Apple taliban get wind of this, you won't be the only person writing letters.

I really don't see what's so stupid - the main issue is a response to the school switching.

Sure, it's poorly written, but I was expecting much more from the description you gave.
holy internets batman.

yeah he is a douche bag, just email the editors.

And Mac files work perfectly fine with PC files, I constantly send files between my pc and my ibook for work all the time.

I personnally don't like Macs has some of you already know. But I find this article so stupid. He never used a Mac!
No, I've never seen that, I've never seen anyone drive their garbage out to the curb and bang the hell out of it with a stick. No, I've never seen that.

Organic Superlube? Oh, it's great stuff, great stuff. You really have to keep an eye on it, though--it'll try and slide away from you the first chance it gets.
