In the beginning Nokia created the mobile phone (well no they didn't but I had to use a company i was familiar with LOL)
I bought and used more of these early mobile/cell phones than I've had hot dinners (yes another exaggeration)
Each phone I bought came with more features, but also with more and more buggy instabilities no matter what brand.
Frustrating things to use for anything more than simple phone calls and texts.
I was NEVER interested in anything made by apple, until my teenage daughter asked for an iPod for her birthday.
So I did some researching and finally went to a shop that I could try out the different iPods.
One of them was an iPod touch with just released iOS 2.
I was instantly hooked and bought it for myself, and another iPod for Sarah. The one she wanted.
That was quite a few years ago and that single apple purchase completely changed my view of not only Apple products but also lead to my my complete and utter disgust of any "operating system" that wasn't iOS.
I'm a simple average joe who just wants stuff to work easily without fuss and frustration.
Yes you could call me an apple fan boy but I'm ok with that simply due to personal incredibly happy experience with 5 iPhones, 4 iPads, 3 iPods, and 3 MacBooks all stemming from that original iPod touch purchase.
Yes there have been software bugs along the way. But is there any operating system in existence that has a clean record from bugs?
I'm 100% sure none of these companies like Apple or Mackie enjoy having buggy software in the end users hands. It just seems like it takes longer for some to get them sorted.
And FYI the only bug I've had across five iOS8 devices has been the very occasional one where multitasking gestures stop working.
It's fixed now with iOS 8.1.3
