Shows how important the OS ecosystem drives user choice. Whatever 
comes stock standard and doesn't require fiddling, but gets the job 
done, safe or not, gets used. Samsung on mobile drives a lot of that, 
plus base tablets. I went to the bother of installing Firefox on my 
tablet because a) I knew how, b) I use it on my laptop already, c) I 
know how to control it already. None of that matched the new user 
experience or desire to learn something different.

Sooner or later, I hate to break it to you, you're gonna die, so how 
do you fill in the space between here and there? It's yours. Seize your space.
