[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1442828"] Everyone IS using an iPhone. Some people are just using the poor man's knock off version of iOS because they can't afford the real thing (or have an irrational hatred of Apple but want the features). :) Also, further to my original post: like OS X, I don't really "use" iOS that consciously. I use apps. The OS is just the support system, and I prefer those to stay out of my way as much as possible (which is why I prefer OS X as well). Both Windows and Android operate under the assumption that users like interacting with the OS itself and thus should be "entertained" with endless customization. Obviously that appeals to some. I still say that impulse is not actually that popular (or Linux would be much bigger with consumers) and that most people like a limited range of choices best. [/QUOTE]
