>>I've heard about the death of Windows and Microsoft before.

Those are your words, not what I said at all.

>>Should it ever happen, I'll go with Apple long before Android

You may not have much choice. Whiteware is going to have a cheaper Raspberry Pi in it before we know it. What OS does it run? We won't care. The fascination with platform is over and barring some catastrophic event or a sudden interest by Western youth in one of the Chinese OS, Android has won.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
