bigot

   A person who is religiously attached to a particular computer,
   language, operating system, editor, or other tool (see
   religious issues).  Usually found with a specifier; thus,
   "Cray bigot", "ITS bigot", "APL bigot", "VMS bigot", "Berkeley
   bigot".  Real bigots can be distinguished from mere partisans
   or zealots by the fact that they refuse to learn alternatives
   even when the march of time and/or technology is threatening
   to obsolete the favoured tool.  It is truly said "You can tell
   a bigot, but you can't tell him much."  Compare weenie.
