tried to mix the two distinctive segments
together with one half-baked product.


IMO, Apple is doing a better job of integrating the distinctive market
segments. They have two OS's designed, one for each segment, but are
working to give the user better integration.

Both OS's can be made to appear the same, using Launchpad on the
desktop, and XXXXXX on the iOS device. I don't own any iOS devices, so
don't know what it's called. Could be Launchpad there too! LOL

But, you aren't forced into it. That, to me, is the key.
