I'm an iOS user, as well as a patented software developer who codes fluently in over a dozen programming languages. I think this statement makes 0 sense.

Meh. Its about use case and not whether a person is "technologically inclined". I prefer PC and Linux to Mac by 1000x because I am a power user on the desktop. That said, I don't need an openish system for mobile even though I am technically inclined. I just need something that is easy to use and works (and fits in with my vast flac/m3 collection that I have had since the early days of ipod).

I was more talking about people who don't know what they're doing messing around on android and messing their system up vs. Apple, where you will have to alter the system extensively before you can mess it up. Lack of viruses on Apple was tied extensively to a lack of open unsigned software support. Therefore Apple is better for the technologically uninclined.

Having open unsigned software support makes it easier for someone at home to write their own app based on checking someone else's app out, etc. But it opens up the door to problems, therefore Android is better for people who are technologically inclined.

And if you just prefer the OS, that's a whole other story. My previous statements were neglecting preference. I was using the word better based on criteria rather than preferences.
