That just about sums up the difference between mac users and the 
anti-mac.  They always want to throw in your face how bad your machine 
is, insult it, etc, but when they've shown otherwise, we quietly smile 
to ourselves, just as we did when they insulted it.
I guess there are certainly mac users who are very vocal and outwards 
bashing on PCs, but I think the majority know they have the goods, and 
don't need to put anyone else down.  We're also the same people who 
jump at the opportunity to help others with their computer problems, 
maybe even explain how easy it is to do it on out own machine.  And 
isn't that a more effective way of convincing someone the mac is great?

And once again I'm rambling, and maybe I'm alone on this one....
