Open source parasites

Nothing like preaching Open Source after someone spends tens of millions to develop a first-class piece of hardware.

If it wasn't for google (a for-profit perhaps even more evil than MS), there wouldn't be an android either.

These open source guys really have to see the forest for the trees. You need a multimillion dollar corporation to develop hardware, and if you've already sold your soul to the devil to get the hardware, who really cares if the OS is open source or not?

In the case of the iPhone, the UI and the hardware are the key elements -- *not* the OS.
