... and he likely got applauded, certainly not punished, after you were 
gone. That kind of tactic can be very attractive to some when selling a 
car, (somewhat less useful when selling a computer or OS), especially if 
the car fails on more-practical criteria.

Some people indeed buy certain things for their potential 
pussy-moistening (or dick-hardening, depending on context) qualities; 
get over it. That such qualities are of no interest to you is just fine, 
but please spare the indignation -- of all possible things to be upset 
about in the world, this should be at the bottom of anyone's list (if on 
the list at all).

Life's too short to be offended so easily.
