Exactly. To draw an analogy, I drive a Subaru coupe. I love the vehicle
as it does everything I need to do from getting the kids to school to
allowing me to enjoy off-road racing. With that said, I recognize that
everyone's needs are different and certainly don't expect everyone that
needs a car to run right out and buy the same make and model that I'm
driving. Selecting an OS is much the same. People are diverse enough
that you can never make one product that is all things to all people.
