I don’t even see where you explained yourself.

Why is it ‘ridiculous’?

Different devices do different things. A phone is not a PC, nobody is writing novels or writing software on a telephone. Nobody is going to do serious work-related computing on a telephone.

I like to write, it sort of my version of day dreaming. I’ll never do that on a phone with its tiny screen and stupid touch screen and I will never do that on a tablet.

I still haven’t been able to locate the CD burner on the IPhone or IPad, either.

That’s all fine. Different devices are used for different things. It makes no sense at all to put a touch screen OS on a laptop or desktop. Nobody is going to reach out and type out a screen play on a laptop screen even if had a touch screen, which most do not.

Is there a “Touch here for the keypad, to make phone calls” button? Sorry, I have no mic or camera on my laptop and that was a purposeful choice when I bought it.

It seems like expecting Lobster from a lemonade stand to think that telephones, tablets, ATM machines, TicketMaster machines, Parking Meters, Refrigerators, Car Engines and stuff should run the same Operating System.
