I can't help but think that some of these people complaining that they have to deal with Microsoft problems all day long fail to see that there is the possibility that if it weren't for Microsoft causing all these problems, no one would need them around to fix them. Just a thought.
If your job consists of daily calls from people needing help with Windows products and that drives you crazy, one thing you might consider in place of a "I'm so technologically surperior to you" attitude would be to go somewhere else where you weren't regularly frustrated. Linux is not a revolution, neither is Firefox or OSS altogether -- they're just options. Stop kidding yourselves and step down from the soapbox.
Maybe I haven't been looking very hard, but I wonder where the G4 enthusiasts are. I know a lot of former TechTV enthusiasts, but haven't heard anyone say "thank God G4 straightened the Screen Savers out." Or something to that effect.

I was gonna say he should be dropped on an island with only an iPod filled with Barry Manilow songs.
