I still remember Apple’s ‘Mac vs. PC’ campaign and even then I thought it would just encourage (even more) elitism amongst Apple users…

That was a hilarious campaign since it ran while Apple computers were just regular x86 IBM clones.

They also always refer to it as “my iPhone”, never “my phone”, at least all the users I have met (NL). I find this very odd.

As an iPhone user who was not obnoxious about it I’ve seen a fair share of pushy android user in school. Then again so were the Xbox vs PlayStation kids. They’ll grow out of it.
