Worry about what? There's nothing there. Only an idiot (you) would
equate the cheapest device being at #1 as somehow outselling WIndows and
Apple device which take up the next 8 places,

Were you dropped on your head as a kid?

It's called choice wRonG.

"flock to this device". LOL. I smell a turd. Blazingly fast too

Dreaming of an Android desktop? Yuck. Single activity UI? No thanks.

Yup... because you really want a full desktop to plug into your linux or
windows development machine to run your app - you'll really be
targetting 21" devices....

"Virus machine" ? There are MORE viruses currently on Android than on
Windows! Surely you knew that wRonG???!?!

Great concept for surfing?!?!? WTF? Has this guy just been let out of
prison?

What games? LOL. Fanboi nonsense.

You really are a twit.

FWIW, Android 4.4 on a nexus 7 is awesome. But there is no way in hell
I'd want a 21" android tablet. Far more choice and flexibility in
feeding the output form a smaller device into the hdmi of the TV if I
want big screen video from the tablet. I feed the hdmi out from my
laptop running debian to the TV for streaming movies. Works great. As
for games? Only an idiot would pick android for gaming over an xbox or
ps3/4.
