iphones can't be used to prove anything except that you're a fanboy. I've given plenty of examples. But you are unwilling to define >I don't care what you include in the universe of "computers", all I care about is winning pointless internet arguments. FTFY You ran to the 'iPhone' example as if the reality distortion field would block me, but it doesn't prove anything. There are billions of servers, network switches, supercomputer installations that are all definitely computers with a shell that don't have a web browser in any way shape or form. Every computer in the entire "cloud" has a shell but not necessarily a web browser, and usually don't have one. Every container running on those servers is essentially a server with a shell. It's a deep rabbit hole if you want to go down. Practically every house with an iphone has at least 1 network router if not more, most have a shell but no browser. The list goes on and on and on. But sure, die on that iPhone hill like so many others before you. |

Now that that's out of the way, we can begin to evaluate it on truth.
> There are billions of servers, network switches, supercomputer installations
I'm not sure there are billions of those. Do you have a source for that claim? From what I found:
Around 80.5 million iPhones were shipped during the fourth quarter of 2023,
In 2020, 12.15 million server units were shipped globally,

> Every container running on those servers is essentially a server with a shell.
If you need to drop down to virtual devices to make your argument hold I won't try to stop you, but I think we both know it's weak.
> Practically every house with an iphone has at least 1 network router if not more, most have a shell but no browser.
Average household size is 2.5, so that's more points for the phone than the router. Also game consoles and smart TVs all have a browser but no shell.
> iphones can't be used to prove anything except that you're a fanboy.
> But sure, die on that iPhone hill like so many others before you.
You're getting very emotional over this. I promise you, it isn't that important.
