Windows Vista Fanboys have taken the Microsoft - Apple face-off at the next level. Here is an example of two Windows users that have succumbed to their most primitive instincts. From where

I'm standing, it looks that the news of Windows Vista running smoothly on Intel-based Mac computers courtesy of Apple's own Boot Camp has gone around. The two Windows fans are only marking the new territory that Windows has taken over Intel powered Mac computers.

The image, posted over at Canoe Live only reads "Ray Majoran and Andrew VanderPloeg leaving their mark on the Apple Store in Chicago. (Ray Majoran/Citizen contributor)." And it is obvious that it has been taken only for humorous purposes and that the two Windows fans depicted only simulate marking their territory.

The same cannot be said for Apple fans. In Toronto Canada, hardcore Apple fans have vandalized a Windows Vista ad by cutting the shape of the Apple logo in the "O" of the Windows Vista slogan the "Wow starts now." I guess that Ray Majoran and Andrew VanderPloeg managed to prove that what goes around comes around.

Furthermore, the Windows Fanboys's approach falls in the lines of the "Get a Mac" commercials, as long as they are only simulating. But let's be honest. Mac computers are Windows Vista territory now and Apple has no opponent.

The Cupertino company has announced as of last week that the release date of its upcoming Mac OS X operating system Leopard was pushed to October 2007 from this spring. Apple has revealed that it was forced to borrow key developers from leopard in order to wrap up iPhone.
