I have found this in a venezuelan hacker page, I had to translate it back to english using Altavista, here we go:
Many users of Macintosh, the Mac surroundings has a religious dawn, it assures a psychologist who, by the others, also is an enthusiastic user of the machines of Apple Computer. Psychologist David Levine, declared to Wired that: "For many people who do not feel to taste with a current religion, Macintosh offers a feeling of community and shared patrimony. To my to understand, the users of Mac have, until certain point, a form common way of thinking and a way to do things. Some people claim to be Buddhist, others claim to be catholic. We claim to be usuary of Mac, which implies that we have values similar to the monks, Levine added."
Another investigator consulted by Wired, Russel Belk, of the University of UTA, expert in behavior of consumers, goes still more far that Levine. In effect, Belk says to have found analogies between the Christianity and the Macintosh movement. Thus, the first model of Apple (Apple 1), sold to outlandish prices, is compared by Belk with the birth of Jesus. Soon, the equivalent one of the Mesías is Steve Jobs. And evidently, it does not surprise that equivalences of Satan and hell are Bill Gates and Microsoft. Source: DiarioTi.com
