>I've never met a real geek who thought Apple was exercising proprietary control outside of their realm. All of the people who complain about Apple like this-- that I know personally-- are not geeks who got into linux (and the "free" ideology) because it was cool, not because they're really hackers with engineering skills.

Is this a joke?

The real hackers are...apple fans, and the people who got into linux because they thought it was cool are all a bunch of posers?

M. Night Shyamalan, is that you?
