    I <3 Google. Hopefully, one day, I can work for them, once they start producing things that actually need materials. More phones, please!

    I love google too. If only their phones were better :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:. Them and apple need to merge take over the world. Oh what a world that could be.

    Since they're both American-based companies, that would be illegal because it would create a virtual monopoly.

    But yay Google.

    Google = Free OS
    Apple = Greatly overpriced laptops/computers that when they break you have to pay twice as much to fix it

    If one company completely dominates a certain segment of the market, it would be a monopoly, which is illegal.

    There's still HTC, however... :slight_smile:
