Be careful! They will drag out the strawman again!
Remember NonZealot, if you ever dare to mention that there are a few too many Apple apologists your bound to be accused of making a strawman argument because not every single Apple user is an over zealous apologist. Although making that kind argument against the complaint of too many Apple apologists is a strawman argument itself.

And if you bother to go further and point out that you are NOT saying "ALL APPLE USERS" are apologists, then they will tell you you are saying there are so few Apple apologists that the very point itself carries no weight and is simply mean spirited to even bring it up.
