iOS is made out of Unicorn feathers and does not take any of the iPad's advertised space.

I'm uncertain whom you're replying to as I never mentioned iOS nor implied anything about it.

iOS does take less space than Windows at last check, but that's to be expected.

I personally think it's pretty disingenuous that more vendors don't advertise the usable space instead of total space.

I'm not thrilled about how much usable space I actually have left on my Nexus 7 16GB as an example...
