I find it funny that in trying to flame somebody else for being a fanboy, you flag yourself as one by the vertue of the same arguments you're serving.
Things fanboys assume : - their console of choice is the best - if another console does something good (ie : releasing free extra tools to make everyone's life better), it shouldn't be praised, and even condemned - but if your own preferencial console *would* eventually do the same, it would necessarily be attacked by everyone else (because anybody that hasn't chosen the same console as *you* must be a witless idiotic fanboy -- cuz he doesn't think like you do, and because you're oh so perfect)
this reeks so much of US chauvinism it's sickening
