Sorta. As my frat mates who are Engineering majors tell me, 100% of of the contents of phones, pads, and PCs, have computer chips that run Linux or Unix inside of them.

uhhh... listing the type of a device and it's manufacturer isn't terribly personal. Good try though.

I like how it really doesn't matter which OS I use these days. Stuff mostly just works once you get used to where the settings reside.

Anonymously too.
- No Smartphone
- No Tablet
- ChromeOS on Laptop
- Windows7 Desktop at work
Don't have a smartphone, tablet, or desktop. I do have a laptop, but I don't know what an operating system is. Computers and other tech stuff has never been interesting to me.
I stick with the best of the best:
- Apple iPhone 6 Plus (black)
- Macbook Pro Retina 15" + Macbook Air 13" (for on the road)
- iPad Air 2
- iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite throughout
I feel bad for the Android and Windows people :-(

And I feel bad for you for overpaying for mediocrity. You look like the type that has to buy the newest device as soon as it hits the market (e.g. Air 2, 6 Plus). Can't Apple devices work for more than a year?
