bye bye M$ and Apple.

I was hoping something like this would happen.  I jokingly say that in a couple of years years I will be doing my PHP development on two smart phones, one client, one server.

Android (is it not basically Linux by another name) has reached 900
millions activations, up from 100 million in 2011, and 400 million in
2012, solidifying its position as the world’s most popular operating
system. And Google Play Android apps has reached 48 BILLION downloads.

Android is also on a path to take over desktops and laptops. A new Galaxy
Smart Dock allows your Android phone to become a desktop computer by
connecting an HD monitor, external storage, USB keyboard and mouse for
just $99. Now an Android phone can also be your entire desktop computer.
Hardware will only get better and cheaper and the Android OS is free.

So what is the future for computers with a $100 or $200 or more
anti-trust "tax" built in for M$ or Apple?
