I've had an iPhone for two years, and never even heard about undo before. I almost couldn't believe it when I tried shaking, and it actually worked. Talk about hidden features... But typing is so much slower with an on-screen keyboard anyways, and I so rarely select text for anything but copy/paste, it has never once happened that I wished there was an undo.
In other words : An Apple fanboy is being a total compainypants about Android because he doesn't want to accept that it's actually a pretty good phone.
Using words like 'fanboy' is playing the man, not the ball. There's plenty of things to pick apart in there (from someone who's a dedicated user of iOS), but just labelling it as fanboyism isn't an effective way to argue against it.
Which sports are you talking about? Because in most sports where you directly face your opponent (i.e. no lines or nets in between), it is completely legal to use minimal body contact (in football, shoulder bumping is okay, for example) to defend or obtain the ball.
"Fanboy" is merely a convenient and quick way to annotate someone who is really into a certain company/product and actively defending it. I don't see how he is playing the man. If he would have said "you lil Apple faggot wouldn't accept Android if it were given to you for free" it would indeed be overly verbal, but "fanboy" is completely acceptable.

Hah, maybe Samdung didn't copy the feature because they didn't notice it either. And thus, they don't have undo at all. Hilarious.

I disagree, I think relying on a rally call of 'fanboy' doesn't do anything to further discussion of the points, and it's now used on both sides to immediately dismiss the points of someone as they're a 'fanboy' and implies they're overly blinded.

I believe the sports metaphor was intended to mean that the criticism amounted to an ad hominem.
