Amiga Persecution Complex

The disorder suffered by a particularly egregious variety of {bigot}, those who believe that the marginality of their preferred machine is the result of some kind of industry-wide conspiracy (for without a conspiracy of some kind, the eminent superiority of their beloved shining jewel of a platform would obviously win over all, market pressures be damned!) Those afflicted are prone to engaging in {flame war}s and calling for boycotts and mailbombings. Amiga Persecution Complex is by no means limited to Amiga users; NeXT, {NeWS}, {OS/2}, Macintosh, {LISP}, and {GNU} users are also common victims. {Linux} users used to display symptoms very frequently before Linux started winning; some still do. See also {newbie}, {troll}, {holy wars}, {weenie}, {Get a life!}.
