It drove me nuts 15-20 years ago when macs started getting popular in my country. Some people would literally buy a brand new premium Mac and the start saying how much better was mad vs PCs. Being PCs the 5 years old family computer that was bought when dial up internet was the hot new thing.

By far, the worse was the photographer who bought an iMac because "you can't do photography without one" and didn't even know it didn't run windows.
