Six of the most stupid comments on Windows Phone 7.5 devices/OS

I'm absolutely tired of explaining to people that Windows Phone 7.5 is an extremely great mobile operating system. All this so called 'fanboyism' makes people so unreasonable! All of the major mobile phone operating systems might have their pros and cons but calling an OS bad/stupid/bloated just because you like the other one is plain stupid! I am also a fan of Microsoft but I don't go around calling every other brand stupid for no reason!

The most stupid comments I've come across are:

1. Windows Phone 7.5 is vulnerable to viruses.
  • First of all, WP7.5 is not Windows 7! It doesn't have any viruses! Even on Windows 7 they're not a problem if you are a little careful and have a little knowledge! Try Microsoft Security Essentials.

2. I've already used it a few years back, didn't like it that much.
  • Really? You used it before the release? What you used was Windows Mobile! WP7.5 is entirely different.

3. No Apps!
  • Please take a look at the marketplace then talk. All of the major applications are already available. But if you are looking for apps that nobody knows or cares about then you probably are right.

4. No dual core processors or, a gig of RAM.
  • This is a serious drawback since this WP7.5 can run about as equally smooth on much lower configurations. For your sake I hope Microsoft makes it bloated soon so that you may finally need gigs of RAM and dual core processors in WP devices. One more thing, before certification it is always checked whether an application can run on most of the WP devices without performance issues.

5. It is a copy of Apple's iOS.
  • Apple would have killed Microsoft with patent violation lawsuits if it were. They're good at it!

6. Apple is the best so WP7.5 is stupid.
  • The best thing about this comment is the fact that most of the people saying so don't have a god damn clue why they believe Apple is best! I understand your love for binary but decimal is more popular in real life so, leave binary for computers. Thus, if iOS is 1 in your consideration then there can be things which are second or third best and not just 0 (or, stupid).

Well, writing that was fun!
