C’mon. Bite that Apple. We know you want to…

Our polls show, that although marketing has done well to make us all aspire to have one, the reality is that we’re still taking home Apple’s rivals.

Kipp absolutely abhors the word fanboy or fangirl, partly because the same image comes to mind whenever these words are uttered. It’s the image of a slightly heavyset, pimply youngun’ hunched over the latest technological masterpiece, ignorant of a devilish looking shadow lurking behind them resembling the likes of any tech “guru” you’d like to name—the scene is almost pedophilic. So you can understand our apprehension to use this word.

This week’s poll, we must admit, is for the fanboys and fangirls of the world.

Kipp loves your candidness and we want to see more and more of the same. And in last week’s poll we asked the most fundamental of all (gulp) fanboy questions: “Are you a Mac or PC?” (dum dum duuuum)

Our polls showed that although there are about 30 percent bona fide Apple users, a majority 57 percent are major PC users.

Interestingly, a few of our Facebook and Twitter followers have revealed some that although they are currently PC users they would like to have a Mac, it’s the PC they come home to, where we’d imagine most would be dropping by the Apple.com website checking in on the latest from the tech giant lovingly called (by its fanboys) the “Cupertino company”.
