I agree that WebOS was great and ahead of it's time, and agree with almost all of the above.
But just for clarity: HP sold webOS to LG (not Samsung), and it (mostly) kept it's webOS name through various aquisitions and rebrandings. See http://www.lg.com/us/experience-tvs/smart-tv-features http://www.lg.com/us/experience-tvs/smart-tv-features and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebOS#History https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebOS#History
Samsung's Tizen is it's own thing -- not some acquisition or rebranding of webOS.
