Why the hell do you think a multi-touch screen requires waving 2 hands around? I use my iPad one-handed, and millions of people use smartphones with only one hand as well.
I think you're in desperate need of some education yourself. Try a critical thinking class.
A Mac will run all Windows software, all OS X software (compiled in the last decade or so) and most Unix software that comes as source. I'd say you're way better off with a Mac than some generic PC that can't run OS X programs.
OS X is a consumer/desktop OS. Safari updates include updates to components (e.g. WebKit) used by other apps. It's easier and simpler for a user to reboot the machine than to be told to log off every user and log back in.
Only a few handfuls of people on the planet will have access to the source for the vast majority of mods. Who's going to recompile your favorite mod for you for some new Android toy when the mod hasn't been updated at all in 4.5 years?
My iPad works as-is, whether or not Apple chooses to continue support. In fact, iOS 6 is indeed not supported.
I did not buy an iPad to use Flash, relying on Adobe to keep up with Apple as iOS was updated. Remember, it was the poster I replied to who said he was screwed without Flash. I am not screwed without iOS 6.
And this is exactly why you shouldn't buy a device that relies on proprietary, and 3rd party at that, support.
The bottom line is that Adobe has no idea that you exist, who you are or that you bought an Android phone. And if they did know, they'd still not care.
As an aside, I do browsing on my iPad all the time. Obviously Flash doesn't work, but you'd apparently be amazed to know that it doesn't hinder me all that much. I hardly feel "screwed".

He did. It's called extinction.
That makes no sense. Why would neo-Nazis deny the Holocaust? Surely they would see it as a singularly inspirational event?
You are an idiot.

You are an idiot. Go away.
Today, no non-X app is network transparent. Tomorrow, no non-X app will be network transparent.
If nothing is changing, how can something break?
Idiot.
Will Ubuntu prevent you from running an X server?
Of course being logical would require some facility, which you obviously lack. So I guess I forgive you.
Unity is not gnome-shell.
Wayland is not compatible with X.
Any other crap you care to spew?
You could, you know... just not use it. Of course complaining like a little shit is so much more satisfying.
Allowing you to exist is also unacceptable.
How is that even remotely (pun not really intended) true?
Not!
Sometimes, when I rewrite sentences, MS apps will point out subject-verb agreement problems. Other than that, I pretty much agree with you.
I side-load all my iOS apps. The ones I write, that is. How do you think iOS developers test?
Yes they do.
(Dipshit understates my opinion of you.)
I feel sorry for you, being stuck in a house with a public thoroughfare literally right outside the window.
So, basically, you're an utter fucking moron. I am not sure it's useful knowledge, but I don't mind picking up a bit of trivia now and then.

If you think that pushing a piece of software that doesn't follow some arbitrary standard is evil, you have a perspective warped beyond imagining.
He's also stupid because he apparently has no clue what-so-ever about the patent system. The whole point is to grant a monopoly!
Um, is this question for real?

Maybe because Adobe has no vested interest in whether you buy an Android or iOS phone?
