I dont think so bub. You should see how no matter how the Intel thing works out, a lot of the "Apple Zealots" are still flaming pissed Apple switched chips.

I knew James Fenimore Cooper, and you, sir, are no James Fenimore Cooper. For one thing, he wrote The Last of the Mohicans on a Mac.

I would. Check out what Mark Twain had to say: Fenimore Cooper's Literary Offences.

Not sure if you're joking or not, but it's fairly clear that Twain is expression admiration for Cooper's accomplishments in the guise of criticism. Typical Twain really, very clever, I was just a bit unsure from your post whether you got it or not.
