Most "apps" are really replacements for simple web pages because of the way Apple is distorting computing.

I don't know where this Apple dig is coming from. Most applications are just putting a bunch of strings into database and displaying strings from a database. This has always been the case with or without Apple, and it works the same way regardless of platform.
That has been the case for most applications since green phosphor displays, just plain CRUD forms.

Works perfectly well for 90% of most businesses.
