This is pretty much what I hear whenever I come across the mutated form of brand loyalty that is a console debate.

Of course I have my own loyalties to my pc, because, well, I enjoy a more personal touch to my gaming experience. What makes me laugh the most is that we have people becoming strangely loyal to commercial products (you have to admit that this does happen). My generation has seen this nonsense before between the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo, between DC and Marvel and subsequently Image once it was on the scene.
The whole fairness issue, on the other hand, is silly as well. The people that practice this outlook seem to forget that they practice their own biases to a certain extent. What's wrong with a little bias if it centers around a piece of plastic?
