   If I'm too stupid to figure out how to set up an automatic call recorder,   
   then so are you.   
      
   If I'm too stupid to figure out how to set up the desktop like I already do   
   on all other platforms, then you are too (since it can't be done due to iOS   
   limitations imposed by Apple MARKETING.   
      
   If I'm too stupid to torrent from iOS then you are too, since Apple   
   disallows torrenting in non-jailbroken devices.   
      
   Heck, if I'm too stupid to simply list out all the apps installed on the   
   device into an *editable* text file from the device itself (without needing   
   a tow truck to do the *simplest* of things), then you are too - since   
   you're the one who advocates the towtruck hundreds upon hundreds upon   
   hundreds of megabytes of bloatware just to perform the simplest of tasks   
   which *every* other operating system can do on its own.   
      
   All you care about is:   
   a. *feeling* safe   
   b. being *stylish*   
   c. Limited solutions [because complexity scares you ... see (a) above]   
      
   That's why you "point" your vehicle, which has the engine welded shut, and   
   which uses a computer-based transmission becuase - as you said - let the   
   computer do *all* the thinking for you - and - of course - in abdicating   
   all your thinking and ability to tweak the engine - you are supremely   
   limited in where you can *point* the thing.   
      
   The only thing iOS users *can* do is punch buttons *already* supplied by   
   Apple & Developer MARKETING organizations. They can *never* go off road.   
      
   iOS is the most limiting commonly used operating system on the planet.   
   It's also one of the most successful.   
      
   That just means there are a *lot* of people like you on this planet.   
   Lots! (the other problem is that people like you also vote)
