...I say that PC users just don't get it:
"That someone can stand in wonder that people don't have a deep, personal bond with a pile of circuitry and metal is why Mac users tend not to be taken terribly seriously."
I have a deep and personal bond with--or at least really like to use--a stick of plastic (my favorite pen), a hunk of wood (the letter opener that fits my hand perfectly), and a brick of plastic and circuitry (my iPod). I can use my supermarket blade but I *like* my Henckels chef's knife; I got along with my VCR fine but I love my Tivo. If your tools have never given you that deep sense of satisfaction, that's too bad; if you just can't imagine feeling that way about your computer, well, that was my point.
