Mac users feel superior to PC users, new study shows

March 14, 2008 5:41 PM

A new study shows Mac users feel superior to those who use a PC in just about everything. Their purchases, preferences and habits are different, too. The study calls Mac users "self-centered and conceited", and says they are more likely to buy teeth whitening products, hybrid vehicles and frequent Starbucks.

A related study showed that Linux users also felt superior to PC users, but were unlikely to buy even soap.

So, Mac users are gullible and buy into marketing, hype, and trends?

Why did they need a study to find that out?

(and yes, I have a Mac)

This feels very self-linky.

What is your connection to "Club E Network"?

Or rather, what does the Club E Network offer MetaFilter that is actually worth viewing?
