My little post about the iPad is getting a lot of views, and strident, indignant comments from my beloved Internets. That you for all the comments that exactly, perfectly prove my points...

I would reply point by point, but as this is the Internet, discussion can never end in someone changing their mind, so it becomes fruitless.

The best is me being called an Apple fanboy. Let's be clear here, this is my computing environment at home:

4 desktop running Vista - one per family member
1 desktop running Vista - a media hub/home audio/phone dock
1 Media Center PC - hooked to TV to watch DVDs and Blu-ray
1 laptop running Vista
1 Microsoft Home Server - backing everything up
Currently putting together a new gaming PC to run Windows 7
and to top it off, one of the desktop PCs is a 20" Mac that only runs Vista - good design for my wife
3 iPhones - me, wife, eldest daughter - youngest uses a Samsung Impressions

If that make me an Apple fanboy, then everyone is an Apple fanboy.
