First, I have never seen a Mac user who is a "dweeb", and second, I'm not sure I see what's wrong with that thread.
Care to expound?

I have seen Mac users confused when using Windows, but as a whole, they seem to be average or above average when it comes to technology.

I wouldn't call them "dweebs", in fact they're usually more knowledgeable than most people I know. Fanboys? Hell yes. Dweebs? No.

Mac forums are painful places to visit. They tend to worship all Apple products. They don't seem to mind at all when Apple screws them.

Critique, the backbone of our world, is plain alien to them.

Yeah, Mac-users are dweebs. They're certainly not, to my experience, even remotely above average when it comes to technical expertise (they don't even know what the inside of their computer looks like most of the time).

I hate how fanboys keep critisizing other products that they don't use, etc. Mac Fanboys(Probably the worst), Windows Fanboys, Linux Fanboys.

Linux fanboys are the best at critising Windows computer; most of them have no knowledge of linux and simply thing there operating system is superior because they can have a 3d cube.

If you don't like an operating system, then switch. I don't see why you have to yell and rant on the one you switched from. I hate rant lists, write a solution list; a much better alternative.

Closing this as flamebait... feel free to pm me if you think useful discussion could be put here and I'll re-open.
