Technically android is running on Linux, Google's even adding an official Linux terminal that can run Linux apps.
I'd rather have linux than android. I don't consider them the same thing. If they were we should be able to run android and linux programs interchangeably without middle-wear, but we can't because they aren't the same.
Android is a heavily modified linux kernel but that's it.
As is Mac Os. Of you still call it Linux ?
Isn't that based on BSD?
You are right, it is based on bsd which is Unix. My bad. My brain mixed these up...
No problems king, I think your general point still goes through.
Yeah failed successfully is the expression. :D can't be half right when around other geeks.
