Mandel believes. Saleem does too, and I suspect other believers lurk unassumingly in the ranks of the Neocrats. But what inspires such religious worship of the Apple, and fanatic shunning of its competitor? This mystery has inspired a film.

  1. Saleem says:

    Yeah, sometimes I wonder why I should be grouped amongst “sex bloggers” and people who shave the Apple logo into their hair. But then I remember! I use beauty.

  2. Saleem says:

    …on the other hand, the people in the film’s trailer are amongst the heedless and depraved generation. I think the Mac, as with all of these secular mini-cults, acts as a placeholder for people searching for something much bigger. In choosing the Mac, they fail in the valley of search, but perhaps they’re trying.

    I, too, believe.

    Yes.

    And for those who see parallels in the Mac v. PC debate and the Obama vs. Hillary one, here’s some interesting reading: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/04/technology/04link.html?_r=1&ex=1359867600&en=59629cc87dc9f623&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss&oref=slogin

    Odysseus, In uploading one post on Obama and one on the Mac cult in the space of a minute, I did not envisage any link between them. Now I see the light.

    Saleem, I thought you did have an apple shaved into your head???

    I was sure after this snippet that there were four types of people :

    1.Infidels/depraved who believe in Mac.
    2.Believers who also believe in Mac.
    3.Believers who are Mac non-believers.
    4.Infidels who are also Mac non-believers.
    (gasp!)

    but now,thanks to Od I feel safer in knowing that there are only two types of people out there:

    1.Obama supporter ?
    2.Hillary Clinton supporter ?

  7. Odysseus says:

    No. There is only Mac or PC. The nomination campaign is simply a manifestation of the underlying reality. Buy Apple stocks now.

  8. Sanisha says:

    hahahaha.
    Oh.
    ok!
