The last apple product I owned was a computer in 1998. I don't own any apple products on purpose. My wife owns the ear Bluetooth pod things and she likes them. But that's it. I've been using Android since 2009? Before that it was Palm devices from 1997.

Apple products just want you to stay in the walled garden. Apple has BSD and Android is Linux. Apple is a status product. It's a lifestyle. It's a signal to others that you are with it. It's comical.

At Best Buy I used to set up stores and displays. Apple always has special people do theirs. We would set up all the others except Samsung. I know many people with iPhones who are convinced that their world would fall apart without their apple products.

Android, on the other hand with Google solved the issue of contacts, calendars and that was a big boon. If I break my phone I can get a cheap phone and get my contacts back.

All my important data can be synchronized with syncthing like passwords, photos... And that is no good service. I imagine my contacts could too.

I can export my contacts and calendar and save them. But I look Google calendar and contacts.

At work last year they have me an ipad and phone. I hated it. Contacts were in three places, rules for access were arbitrary.

I just used my personal phone. Time for employees was required but in the field the ipad had no service so I just did my time sheets at home from a Linux computer.

I haven't used a Windows computer since 2010. I've used Linux since 1999.

Like all other things I've even considered getting a dumb phone because Why do I need it. Yet I'm on a small tugboat on the water wiring this at lunch. Who knows?
