"This guy is a hardcore Linux geek converted into hardcore Mac-fanboy (polar opposite)"

I disagree that these are polar opposites. I have been a Windows guy most of my life, but after switching to Linux, I have learned to appreciate the merits of the UNIX basis of OSX.

What I mean by that statement (which seemingly wasn't completely obvious) was that he went from a "I want to be in control of and tinker with absolutely everything"-stance (Gentoo, enough said) to "I want everything working, done, out of the box"-stance (Macs).

I'd argue that is very much polar opposites.
