Comment 1737 for bug 1

Please read this VERY carefully and cover to cover.
The truth is actually very simple - it's not bugs (notice that bugs in
proprietary crap never really stopped established proprietary crap vendors
and neither did their approach to "fixing" them), the lack of marketing
(notice how impossibly hard it is to make a dent in ANDROID after it was
here "first" and managed to actually take off and the extremely poor
standing of Winblow$ Phone despite all the hype) or anything else along
these lines that's holding the adoption of free software.
The root cause of most of our problems is that THOSE WHO STAND TO PROFIT
FROM THE CURRENT STATUS QUO WILL STOP AT NOTHING TO MAINTAIN THEIR PROFITS.
It doesn't even have to be LEGAL - all that matters is that all the dirt
stays well hidden because nobody gets prosecuted for something nobody knows
or cares about.
