People who deride another person choice to buy a particular product just because they don't like it

Each to their own, and everyone has an opioin.

My view of apple comes from the people i've had the pleasure of meeting who use them, some are ok, but a majority arn't. Just also the cost factor comes into it. Mac Books do look ace i have to admit but the pricing isn't

Also i wouldn't ever stop any one from buying Apple as it is my personal view and i know a lot like them, same as those who buy intel etc. What i can't stand is when people rip into PC users for saying all get virus's and 'gloat' mac's don't get them and so on. But then as said above most likely just what i have come acrossed and suffered from Mac/ Apple users.

Unlike a lot i actually Like Voyagers, Pendo's and the Class 70 :) as the latter is built for frieght and don't need to look nice like the Southern Q1

Much like people rip into Mac users for being fanboys !!
If you like PCs then buy a PC, if you like Macs buy a Mac !!
Simples, to coin a phrase

You can pretty much guarantee on every internet forum in the off topic section there will be a PC v Mac debate. And they each slag each other off and it sometimes gets quite heated. I reckon no other two items could create such a reaction !

As you can see i rather dislike apple and anything to do with them

Chris

I'm half with you on that, but that is partly cos I have no use for a Mac.

They are bloody expensive though and they are not totally immune to viruses as some people think

You don't hate iPods then? :P

Do you like apples? :lol:

With you on that - I don't mind them either. Though the Class 70 looks like it was from a jelly mould but never mind. Are we in the minority and likely to get seen to by the men in white suits before long? :lol:

Must be near for liking the 70's and voyagers :L :P But do slightly prefer tilting Voyagers though more :P as they are so cool to me :)

Ipods im not to fussed about as i was gonna get one till i got a creative product, of course like normal apples :)

That is very true XCDriver each to their own, fanboys on both sides are a pain. I understand why people use macs and so on, and i would try one if i could afford one :s

Just as i said before ones that i've come across are annoying like the no virus's thing. But i've seen plently of PC users that put us to shame.

Also agree about the Apple Vs PC thing tech forums are the worst places then all, and a lot hate mac straight out. But as i said i do dislike them, but i understand the appeal of them and why people use them :)

Haha lol. I know the laptops are far far better then the Windows ones really for the quality and no crummy plastic on them.

Each to their own though. I wouldn't presume to say this machine would suit everyone, it probably wouldn't. But it suits me and thats why I bought it !!

That is very fair :) Such as i mostly use a self built desktop a lot as i prefer it and can't imagine it would suite much. But is my intrest so why i got it/ the parts.

If you don't like others don't persuade them your view. thats what i do at least :)

I'm curious. Which states DO you agree with having slavery? :p

I referred to CERTAIN Middle East states that have slavery as those are the ones that have been proved to still have this as part of this in their culture.

It goes, WITHOUT SAYING, any other states who still accept slavery as normal

I was going to add another item at the time, but I held back, but since you have motivated me, I will now add:-

FEMALE GENITAL MUTILATION...that still remains as a cultural belief in certain states.

And....

People at large busy petrol stations who don't bother to check their pump number before going to pay and then while I'm queueing behind them gesticulate vaguely in the direction of their car when asked which one and then burble on about "the red one over there no not that one behind the Ford KA, is it a Ford Ka, looks a bit like a Ford Ka, anyway not that one the red one behind it, no, behind it in the line not behind it from this angle, oh, pump two is it, £30.97 you say, I think that's right, well, not sure, it was 21 or 22 litres, no, premium unleaded, yes, that's right, do you take this card here, oh, you don't, oh yes, that's right, that's BP isn't it that does Nectar................"

Horseboxes on the motorway (even worse than caravans in my experience).

I wonder how much of that is down to religion?

And it happens over here too! Infact i believe it was Jane Moore who recently highlighted the problem in this country....she may be a sun collomist, but she wrote frankly about it.

*He's got nothing to do with the 'phone hacking' scandal, as far as I'm aware, but I really hate the bloke. :D

And I'll add people who drive at less than the speed limit on an open road in clear weather, without allowing room to overtake.
And middle-lane hoggers on motorways.

Sorry, Kernowfem. No offence intended. Actually, I prefer to keep my speed down a bit these days to save fuel, usually keeping up with the 56mph-limited lorries on the inside, but then get stuck if there's anything slower and can't pull out because of the middle-lane hoggers. So perhaps they're more to blame than you!

Mind you, if you took the horse in the caravan couldn't you save on journeys?

Lol None taken Smeth....no need for apologies. If i took the horses in the caravan, i take it you'd volunteer to clean up the mess after? I don't think my mum and dad would appreciate their lovely twin axel home from home palace covered in manure....:D:D:D

People who undertake on the motorway!! To such an extent i will usually speed up just to annoy them!!

Whats wrong with a bit of manure in the caravan? Horses deserve some comfort as well!
