The worst thing about Macs?

I found a very interesting article today at ExtremeTech about what the author thinks is the worst thing about Macs. I have to agree on most of the points in this article, but I don’t want to spoil it so if you have five minutes go read it yourself.
Interesting article. His observations are correct but I thought a better title would have been “the worst thing about the human race”. His criticisms apply to Mac lovers, PC lovers, Christians, Muslims, Americans, English people etc etc. It’s not because they love macs that people behave like that. It’s because they’re idiots.
I’m a Mac fanboy since 1986 (a little over a year since they came out, I used an Apple IIgs at the time). I agree with 98% of what the author says. Anyone who is a zealot for anything is being (like tobiwan says) an idiot. But… I still hate and detest M$ Windoze. Not because closed source is evil (sic), but because Microsoft tries and tries and tries, but consistently produces horrible software, I mean, who can really disagree with that?
Actually I have to disagree with your point on Microsoft making bad software. Microsoft has some of the best programmers this world has to offer, but is badly managed. Microsoft does actually produce some very good software for example Microsoft Office 2007 contains a lot of innovation and has a great UI, I would love to have this on my Mac. Granted Microsoft is not as good as Apple when it comes to consumer software but I would dare to say Microsoft’s Enterprise software is very good.
