Android = crappy poor man's iOS
Windows = crappy poor man's Mac
"Besides, some of the stuff that Android has been doing for years is now showing up in iOS, so it can't all be bad."
what? like multitasking, copy/paste, widgets? if you want to be technical, iOS is a derivative of MAC OS X/NextStep, and MAC OS X/NextStep had multitasking, copy/paste and widgets years/decades before Android.
- Delmania 15y agoActually, you're wrong. Windows is far from the a poor man's OS X. The dock in OS X is copy of Stardock, which was originally done for Windows. NeXTStep was not definitley not the first OS to have multitasking. In fact, Windows 2.0 which was released 1 year had it first. Once Apple released a development environment and office toolkist that is as widely used as either Visual Studio or Office 2010, then maybe you can make that claim. Or when the company creates it owns command line processor, or IDE for a phone. I realize many people such as yourself like to believe Apple is some innovative company, but they're just as guilty of stealing ideas as every other tech company in the Valley. Apple's strength is taking those ideas and weaving into a consistent and polished UX.
