No. It's a totally made up fallacy.

Macintoshes almost never work they way you're told they do. They're really
keen subliminal devices. They make you think that you're doing work, while
in reality you're just staring at a blank screen, and a bunch of elves do
your calculations on an abacus. When you need to print, they wheel in an
old XT with a laser printer and print something out that LOOKS like it
could have been done on an Apple. All the money you pay to Apple to keep
your machines running just goes into gas money for the elves (do they drive
LBCs?) and for Steve Jobs to build his house to one-up Bill Gates.

Apple is the greatest conspiracy of the 20th Century.


er, flame away!
