Pretty desperate comeback i'd say, I was commenting on a sweeping statement that mac users use in regard to their products, but then you knew that!

I don't hear that from Windows users. Happy to own their machine. But I guess that's no surprise when your main interest is to get the absolute bottom-bargain-basement deal on the cheapest possible components ripped out of the circuitry of a B-52 toilet light and packed in the wrapper for a bulk container of military Meals Ready to Eat.
I probably wouldn't feel much affection for something like that either.
I have no argument against the Mac infact I find them quite appealing but the statement above is one of those statements that have absolutely no basis in reality.
Simply rebadging something e.g. "Superdrive" doesn't make a pioneer drive any more superior.
Many PC users are enthusiasts who lovingly assemble there machines using premium components that outspec Mac counterparts by miles. It is however a complete falicy to suggest that Mac's use superior components to other big OEM's as demonstrated in Tom's? recent review.
