Still waiting on your answer to my question, professor.

Seems like you'll be waiting for a while.

If ha cannot answer that question, why should we listen to his opinion of an OS, since he cannot even define what he's talking about?

I just did.

I GET that in the deranged desire of some people to show how people are abandoning the Windows OS, they decided to now count a mobile OS (that mostly runs on cell phones) as the same as Windows (that runs on equipment that Android isn’t), but that does not make Android a desktop OS and the same as Windows.

Just like with marriage, just because two men say that they want to be “married” does not mean the definition changes. And in the case of OSs, just because you have a OS that mostly runs on phones, being used by lots of people, does not mean that how we defined OSs for 30 years changes to include the stuff running on your cell phone. Why not count the OSs on PlayStations and Xboxes or the Wii? Those run programs too, can connect to the internet as well.
