You are speaking of Android Linux, right? The world's
most popular OS and Linux flavor.

That is, I'm not rich, but as the price of the hardware has dropped, I
personally own a smartphone, a tablet (and bought one more for my wife), a
laptop, and a "grunt" PC. I have two PCs of different generations at
work.
The PC is best for content creation/editing, including posting on Groklaw:
Large screen holding lots of information, good keyboard, mouse. But it doesn't
move well from place to place. The laptop moves between the house and work.
The tablet goes pretty much anywhere, but I haven't been able to use the iPad
lately....it didn't like sitting in my car all week with no charger. Laptop and
tablet both have "reasonable" keyboards.
What I didn't see discussed in the article is something that has been obvious:
"Market Saturation", especially in the US. I've got way more
computing horses than I can possibly use, unless I want to search for new
Mersenne Primes or mine Bitcoins, pretty specialist stuff.
I'll also mention that the author has drunk the "cloud" Kool-aid. I
want my primary storage and capabilities LOCAL, I do not want Google or Apple or
anyone else to have a copy of my data -- it's a single point of failure I just
don't need. I want to be able to work "off network".
