How many carpenters have you spent time around? My Martinez is far superior to my coworkers Stilletto, if we’re just talking about hammers. If mine is across the room and I borrow his it just feels wrong and I grumble about it. We do kid around about that. Although it pales to our discussion about Makita versus Milwaukee powered tools.

Power tools are a totally different story.. but when it comes to Microsoft vs Apple vs Linux people get downright hateful at times.
That is very true. I always have had my preferences and what I purchase reflects them, but I’ve had to do enough work on enough systems I can move between them well enough. The tribal hatred is not needed but people like to belong and be “better” than others. Any more than the occasional jovial joke is uncalled for though.
