Amiga Persecution Complex
n.
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!}.
