Since you didn't post to my Apple bashing anonymously, I will explain myself...
My impression and limited experience of Mac users has been folks who genuinely think Apple is innovative. I believe they are not. They take existing technology and perhaps make it more mature by adding a good interface to it. I give them credit for making things like mp3 players more mainstream but they did it by trying to pushing their own format. In the end they are bad for the industry and I am glad their strategy of keeping everything closed failed the last time around they were a heavy player.
Very simply, if "Apple" in the article was replaced with the less word hip "Sony" all the Apple fans would not be happy.
