Blurring the Lines . . .

Where do you put Apple fanatics within the primitive versus individualist continuum?

On the one hand, they're worshipful to the point of irrationality. On the other hand, they seem to feel their collective love for all things Apple as the ultimate marker of their extreme individuality.

Likewise, the corporation they adore would seem to be more individualistic than their rival Microsoft, yet it's the Wintel alliance that allowed the PC revolution to flourish in such a chaotic manner whereas Apple maintained a stranglehold on hardware.

But regardless where they sit on the continuum, I think all non-Apple fanatics can agree, hey folks, it's just a PHONE!!!
