Yeah, because what the IT world urgently needs are more arbitrary naming schemes. Which reminds me, I actually have a leftover copy of Windows on one of my machines that I boot into from time to time. Should I call it a part-time PC? And I have VMWare on the others. Does my Linux box become a "real" PC once it boots an emulated copy of Windows? This is all getting so complicated.

I was trying to point out that, despite repeated claims to the contrary, Amazon's Kindle does not exist for all platforms, mine included. Either way, I'll stop here, my point having been made.
