@betaporter you could have made this *exact* same argument in 1987 about Amiga versus, say, Apple GS. It's an enormous waste of time.

@betaporter believe me, I fervently wish the Android ecosystem had other SoC choices. It'd be so much healthier on every level. But that's sadly not the case..

I'm consistently impressed by the designs and mechanical engineering that come out of the 3D printing community.

@betaporter nothing! use the etch-a-sketch if that's what's working for you! The rest of us like, y'know, actual progress in computing history.

@betaporter Ah, yes, 640kb of ram should be enough for everyone. Why even have a phone? Use an etch-a-sketch.
