    Well, we actually did give them the choice. They all chose iPhone, though I admit we encouraged that because it was simpler to lock those down and keep track of their location with them when they were younger.

    My oldest had his for a few years and switched to an Android when he became more tech savvy and realized that an Apple didn’t afford him the customization he wanted and didn’t mesh as well with the PC he built with his summer job money.

    I kind of like that we have an assortment of ecosystems in the house, because it exposes them to the advantages and drawbacks of each. Lord knows they hear me cussing out Windows often enough when I use the laptop, so maybe they’ll be motivated to learn to use another OS when they’re older.

      Or they could take the route I did.

      I looked at Zorin and went “Ooh, pretty!” and learned how to install it

      And that’s why I use Linux
