My original argument was that you trolled. It's still trolling. My argument still stands.

As for the article, I think it was a poor study. The study only followed ONE apple "fanatic" ("The neuroscientists ran a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) test on AN Apple fanatic") not on a GROUP of apple consumers. It sounds to me like the study was looking for this to happen, so they chose the craziest apple fanatic they could find. Then the article said that the employees were "whipped up into an evangelical frenzy" which sounds like a fancy way of saying "enthusiastic about their job". Happy employees make a happy, successful company, no?

And even then, CNN quoted a documentary, and those are mainly propaganda anyway.

On top of that, you said that there were multiple brains scans, as in more than one, misquoting the study.

I'm not an apple fanatic. If I was I would be obsessed and need to have the latest stuff, which I don't. I use macs because they work better for what I use computers for. Period. I've owned a high-quality PC laptop in the last year, thinking I would be able to use it instead of buying a new macbook pro. I gave Windows 7 a chance, but it simply does not beat OS X. I returned the laptop and sucked up to buy a macbook pro because THAT'S WHAT WORKS BETTER FOR ME.
