It also bugs me that Apple operating systems always target below-average IQ’s. The ability to tweak things is there, and the hardware is solid, but they actually make the day-to-day interface more cumbersome to keep dumb people from doing dumb things, rather than making it as intuitive and efficient as possible.[/quote]
I can’t prove this with elegant stats, but Apple does this because most people are dumb! How many people hire a tax firm for 5 line 1040EZ? Wait, QED![/quote]There’s an app for that. It’s SnapTax…

March 10, 2011 at 10:34 PM #675870CoronitaParticipant[quote=CDMA ENG]So I know own both an Android and a iPhone. I can say this… iPhone was inovative… WAS… Android is so much better than iPhone. The only thing my iPhone does better is it plays Netflix… My Galaxy doesn’t.
Also… I thought the Apple products were Unix based as well.

They are based on Darwin which has some roots from BSD…
I just think it’s kinda funny that Android use to be the laughing stock of the phone o/s…Apparently not so funny anymore…..
The thing I like that’s great about android, is it’s just about open enough that there’s always some phone manufacturer that’s going to one-up the other one…
So it’s just amazing that the Nexus S already has NFC capabilities.March 10, 2011 at 10:34 PM #675927CoronitaParticipant[quote=CDMA ENG]So I know own both an Android and a iPhone.

The article is misleading though. Although Samsung manufactures the A4 and probably the A5, it probably doesn’t have a license to use it in it’s own product.
