Thank you for the hug zumbalak that I so desperately needed. Fanboyism, I had to look that one up . . . an obsession typified by absolute loyalty to a single fannish object. Blindness to competing or dissenting opinion is often a symptom.

Yea, I'd say that pretty much it in a nutshell. I've gone through life making rational decisions based on my own experiences . . . never been one to jump on the band wagon. I can see how fanboyism could keep one from the rational side.

It's sad that my 7 year old BMW is not giving me the "gas and go" I am looking for. It's a good thing my 10 year old Lexus is, I drive it to go get parts for the X.
