I guess that looking at things from the top of the heap is going to look 
different than looking at it from the bottom. So those with the crappy 
computers are going to be resentful of the Mac owners. Meanwhile the Mac 
owners will be showing little patience with the constant stream of 
Windows problems that they don't want to hear about.

I think the Mac owners impatience stems from a belief that these are 
self-inflicted wounds. I mean if someone is born crippled or is injured 
in an accident, most people will be sympathetic. But it is much harder to 
be sympathetic when faced with both a self-inflicted wound and a refusal 
to take an easy cure.
