I am Aspergers, so I put things in neat boxes.
I can handle more detail than most people, as I'm sure you can and I'm,
positive nospam can. 

However, unlike you and nospam, I don't operate with foregone conclusions.
And I don't apologize for the software.

What I don't understand is people, like you and nospam, who feel they have
to apologize for the flaws in the software.

To me, there is no more emotional attachment to Android as there is to iOS. 
I have both.

There are flaws in Android, each of which I openly admit.
There are flaws in iOS, again, each of which I openly admit.

To me, these are non-emotional items.
To you, it's *all* about emotion.

That's why you can't possibly weigh the differences meaningfully.

The mere fact that nospam lies constantly, means that he's trying to
"protect" Apple's image (for what reason, I can't imagine).

To me - both Apple and Android have great things and terrible things.
I don't lie to cover them up.

For example, you said iOS could do the things I said it couldn't, even
though you KNOW it can't.

Why?
What's your emotional attachment that clouds the truth?
