The "can still be found" part should tell you that is talking about phones still being sold, not being launched. You are the one twisting words there.

So in other words, you can still get brand new Android phones with 2.3. Meanwhile, you can't get a new iPhone with anything but iOS 7.
"Android" is not a company.
That is the most hilarious misinterpretation of browser development history I have ever heard.
No, SeaMonkey is like what Mozilla used to be, before Firefox was created to make a browser that was not a terrible piece of shit!
Having the first product mass-adopted is not the same thing as having the first product;
And "having the first product" is not something I ever said they did. Perhaps read what you are replying to before knee-jerking?
there were shit-tons of MP3 players on the market when Apple introduced the iPod, and people bought them, their suckiness notwithstanding.
Very few people bought them. There was hardly any market at all for them. Until Apple came along.
Nope. That was a simple statement of fact, and if you can't see that, you're letting your cheap cynicism blind you.
I did not say it hadn't been done before. I said there was no real serious market for those things before Apple came along and did it right.
If you looked at those markets before Apple entered them, you'd say they were crazy for trying to make a profit there, because the demand just wasn't there. But they made the demand appear.
Nor did I say they did. There just wasn't any serious market for those things before Apple created them.
Apple doesn't really enter existing markets. They make new ones.
Slashdot has been pretty much luddite when it comes to anything but Linux on a desktop machine for at least a decade now, if you hadn't noticed.
Even as shitty and useless as it started out, USB has put all of these to shame.
USB, which... has power and data on the same connector and cable, and also had to add more pins in a new connector because it didn't have enough up front?
And much less as soon as they move even slightly apart, like from a shock. That's the thing with magnets, they stay in place until given a tug or shock. Apple's MagSafe connector uses magnets exactly because it comes off so easy when tugged.
Well, thanks for demonstrating the point.
Here you go, the source for it, found in five seconds on Google:

You could have checked yourself if what you were going to say was actually true, but I guess that just wasn't a priority.
They actually created clang from scratch and open-sourced it.
Anyone can make an omelet with eggs. The trick is to make one with none.
