I'd rather drop 100.000 bags w/ food over Africa than try to impress the public with idiotic moves, or drop 100.000 DVDs full of e-books rather than a piece of useless crap to entertain several thousands for a couple of hours.

If they achieve to clone only 1, it is doomed to masturbate a lot.

Exactly, also you have no control over that hotspot, the company uses your payed line to make more money, as they sell this to others as a service and on top of everything, you have no control to your router whatsoever, you have to login to the company's website and see what limited options they provide you.
Also, in France I had terrible problems with latencies and ofc with Youtube

Linux suffers from inaccessibility to software

I strongly disagree(actually by definition this is false). Linux never suffered from inaccessibility, you *ALWAYS* had your repositories full of software. On top of that you had several solutions to pick from. I'd I agree with you *if* you mentioned poor quality software(e.g. feature incomplete, or difficult to use)
Actually, MS and Apple copied the way *BSD and Linux distribute their software/packages,simply via repositories... Yes the Apple Store the AppStore the aPPsTORE and all those "I invented it first" *bs* concepts, decent from the simple idea of creating a repository for all your available programs so the user had a front-end to the package manager that collected the software list and you could choose your application.
Simple as that
In conclusion, Windows reigns as king because they are the only one who is licensing their OS to PC makers... and PC makers want to keep following the safe path to big sales and that goes with the one who is able to advertise. End of story.

Actually MS is making windows crappier and crappier for production because they never made money from those huge purchasers. A company or an institute that buys services from MS, get their Windows and some version of their Office suite for free, while they pay a lot for other staff. So they focus on fb users and "twitterers" because those are the ones who are paying for basic and home edition.... plain useless and feature naked versions.

YES, Windows 8/8.1 are f********ing great.
E.G. When you got a laptop with windows 7 and you were sad. You had to setup a dual boot because you wanted to have the joy of windows' games and features and ease of use from time to time, but when you were serious you were working on Linux ofc.
Now, you get a laptop with windows 8 and things are pretty clear. No more dual f'ing boots, no "God damn it I forgot to pick the right OS on GRUB2"... now you are just relaxing on boot times, because you have only one choice...just Linux.

lighter dummy head.

You can see obviously that the trends that smartphones created, especially iPhone, are stirring the evolution of the PC (and yes mac IS included as a Personal Computer). If Apple manages to keep up with the iPhone sales, they can offer a great sandbox solution to the market, e.g. get those files on all your devices by default, no configuration, everything works out of the box, get discount on those purchases from our company e.t.c. they can force their customers to buy iMacs, Macbooks and so forth. I believe it is not the transition from PPC to x86 that boosted the iMac and macbook sales, although intel had a greater chip in the mobile market, but the fact that the Apple trend rose the same period when they released the iPhone. As a developer, products like the ones from Apple do not cover my needs, I like to tweak around my devices, add features(mPCI-e cards, extra drivers or batteries, or 2nd VGA , I know it sounds crazy but the Ideapad series offer that) and I use exclusively Debian, so there is no reason to get a system that it's h/w locked and it's software is designed for FB and twitter users.

Do not get me wrong on this, but you say that you are using apple's products. This by itself is a *thumbsup* to those companies who like to index their users messages, spy on them and jail them into a sandbox forever, because they make a shitload of money. Google would care less if you stopped using its browser, since you are using google, google+, youtube, gmail, have several android phones over the last years and so on. I am not trying to persuade you or someone else to stop using those services, this is something that one must realize without any someone else forcing him/her. What I want to point out is that if you are waiting, in this example, a new iteration of browsers that do not abuse you and your privacy, how do you expect this to happen, when you are supporting the big companies, which buy anything or anyone else that innovates in the market.

Because it seems, from my point of view that big endian is better than naidne elttil. Not performance-wise but in other ways, e.g. debugging raw data from the memory, or getting raw data from the network. Also big endian is the most common one. Oohhh... and it's also big.

NOT. I've seen a friend doing the same thing for his thesis(he was an undergraduate) back in 2006 were everything was more expensive(boards,controllers, various modules) and more primitive. Back then there were no IDEs for boards like arduino, you had very few libraries to work with and everything was done mostly by hand, I remember him building some of the circuits too(custom pcb with components like the gsm module), as some module were to expensive or had a strange shape and couldn't feet with the rest of the components.

Are there minimum requirements to connect to facebook/twitter or read e-mails? did those sites drop support for older OSes. Does facebook still load on my windows XP machine with an old Athlon? how do I get that etc? Does apple sell it? Most people need a bigger screen and a faster tablet, you can't wait the f*ing game to load when your average dumping time is round to 10 mins. You either have to get a faster machine or stay in the toilet a lot longer. but anyways, you can always get those z196 IBM enterprise servers, they are bigger, faster and they are shipped unlocked, you can even install linux.
