I do believe I concur.

Yes, I don't think anybody has denied that themselves. I've told you time and time again, a fanboy is just someone who is very passionate about something and wants to spread his joy and appreciation of that thing to others. Unfortunately, others may not share that passion and then people butt heads. Also that passion is often at the expense of the exclusion of other good things because they are justifying their personal choices. In essence, they are defending their own personalities, their own identies, their own thought-processes and desires in what they choose.
I used an iphone most of tonight because my own GPS went down due to me corrupting some of the maps files. I love the interface. It's great and intuitive and I wish right now I could sweep my hand across my monitor and have it do the same thing. Apple is great, it's just not for me (even though I am typing this out on an Apple keyboard).
I've said before, the negativity you might find from some in your threads is probably due more to your positivity. It's the natural balance of things. The more profusely you praise something, the more profusely someone else who does not share that view will work to voice their own counter-opinion because they think you are out to lunch or not giving everything their fake shake.
