Corporate America likes the iPhones over the Androids.

Yes, and exactly for Greg's reasons that the iPhone is closed, it is
what it is and therefore everybody's is the same.

That is also the reason corporate America embraced the IBM PS/2
PCs.Guys were not buying mail order cards and loading shaky drivers on
their "work" machines. Everything was licensed and verified that it
would not conflict with anything else. You didn't have all those IRQ
conflicts and drivers stealing each other's resources.

I had all the PS/2 parts I wanted and ran them for years until I
started wanting to do things IBM did not think a PS/2 user needed. I
was not going to trade IBM's vision for Apple's vision of what I
wanted so I went for the open hardware of WinTel and I deal with the
conflicts I might encounter.

I am sure Harry understands that if an ap he buys "bricks" his phone,
it is on him to fix it now.

I remember those days, company I worked for had a Compaq computer and
every card in it had to be from Compaq, including the modem.
