Howto get attention and upset people

You could probably set off a few Mac users by critiquing the new Mac commercials. For instance, by pointing out that "touche" doesn't necessarily require that the comment thus acknowledged be a counterpoint to a previous point. From Dictionary.com:Used to acknowledge a hit in fencing or a successful criticism or an effective point in argument.Since the "Apple person's" comment is a successful criticism, the "PC person's" reply of "touche" is entirely appropriate. A slap on the wrist goes to the Apple adwriters.

The great thing about John Dvorak is that he makes listening or reading fun ... and he always tries to get a rise out of someone. But he certainly has a few pet areas where he gets the best 'rises.'
