@dirb At some point people decided that it was just too hard to look at pictures of cats and clips from Family Guy on a desktop computer. They insisted instead on doing this through a "smart phone", which was essentially a PDA with a cellular phone built in.Big companies were happy to oblige for a monthly fee and additional charges per megabyte. Most of these devices were locked down and served only to display content.Congratulations idiots, you just took a dump on more than 30 years of progress.
