And it would have been 2-3 times more expensive.

I have an ipad and I can't stand the thing. My friend just got a Microsoft Surface. Much better than the ipad, it works like a real computer with a desktop and everything.

Yeah.
And then every update would have been mediocre at best,
and people would be waiting outside Ford Dealerships for the upgrade,
for what other people have been using for years.

No thanks, unless I wanted 5 years olds being able to use it.

QNX all the way.
