> Ok. So how does an Apple fan respond to something they intensely dislike? It's very difficult to respond in an objective manner to something that you feel emotional about. Some of the best advice that I have heard over the years is to try to take yourself out of a situation and imagine that you are observing two people are arguing about the subject. What advice would you give to each of them and how does this impact the subject at hand. Bear in mind that you wouldn't necessarily advise either of them to call the other guy an idiot (even if it's true) if that would just make the other guy angry. I found this PG essay to be thought provoking too: http://www.paulgraham.com/identity.html http://www.paulgraham.com/identity.html
