A comment by Mark Warnock got me thinking… ESV readers are a lot like Mac users. (BTW, I’m both)

Just in time for the Christmas, yes Christmas, season Banner of Truth has unveiled a gift card option. It comes in a larger greeting card and can be redeemed on the Internet and over the phone. The best news in addition to the Good News? Banner of Truth is not going out of business, so this gift card will still be valid in 2009!
Ryan,
I can’t say I disagree with you. I’ve noticed some comments around the web lately that would substantiate your comment. If you like the interview with Mark, be sure to check out the interview I did with Ryan a few weeks ago.
From the perspective of a PC user and NIV reader….
Yeah. You’re exactly right.
Hmm. Is it arrogance? Insecurity? A penchant for being in the minority? Contempt for the bandwagon? Or just the raw unfading enthusiasm of a new convert?
I think there might be a little truth to all the above Mark. Along with that, I think there is something to the fact of finding a product that is something you truly love. I really love using my mac and I really love the ESV. Therefore I am a brand advocate for both… but that’s just one guy.
I think something that is interesting is that you don’t see that same kind of zeal for other other products like windows or niv. I think there is something about the experience that strikes within a person and causes them to really get excited. The mac was the first computer I got really excited about and the ESV was the first translation that I got excited about.
Just my thoughts…
