			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Windows Weenies are mad (again) that people really truly seem to enjoy Apple products. Even journalists! How dare <em>journalists</em> enjoy Apple products! Don&#8217;t they know the appropriate response? Just ask <a href="http://blogs.zdnet.com/microsoft/?p=1820">Mary Jo Foley</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8230;I hear/see a lot more jeers than cheers in the Microsoft press rooms and events&#8230; </p></blockquote>
<p>Umm maybe that&#8217;s because they make products so shitty even Windows users don&#8217;t buy them? (read: Vista)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.newsweek.com/id/179825">Daniel Lyons</a>, a rude and inarticulate fellow from what I can gather, apparently thinks that Steve Jobs&#8217;s medical records should be published on a daily blog. If not, the media is to blame!</p>
<p>My personal belief is that if Apple can&#8217;t thrive without Steve Jobs Apple can&#8217;t thrive. If Jobs is that necessary, they are fucked.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://theappleblog.com/2009/01/22/in-pursuit-of-quality-the-apple-fanboi/">Apple Blog</a> has a lot of links if you want to follow this silly topic around the &#8216;net. It&#8217;s the same old shit &#8212; people do not like that other people like Apple. <a href="http://community.winsupersite.com/blogs/paul/archive/2009/01/16/rotten-reporting.aspx">Some weenies make a living at not liking us for liking Apple</a>.</p>
<p>Me thinks thou doth protesteth too much. <a href="http://www.roughlydrafted.com/2009/01/18/dan-lyons-paul-thurrott-the-fake-and-the-phony/">Daniel Eran Dilger basically rips them up</a>.</p>
<p>I think the Obama comparison is telling. If you really get excited about something, people just can&#8217;t resist characterizing it as some sort of fanboy infatuation. They just can&#8217;t give us credit for using our brains. It must be some personal failing on our part.</p>
<p>WRONG. Quality is a mysterious thing but we know it when we see it. And, perhaps more importantly, we don&#8217;t apologize for seeing it.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m very sorry your operating system sucks. I&#8217;m sorry that you are willing to put up with the second-rate Windows Empire. I&#8217;m really sorry that Steve Jobs is not dying fast enough for you. Please, dear Windows Weenies, go fuck yourself. Thrice.</p>
