Item — HN Reader

The big selling point of the Apple Mac computers line is that they are not Windows PCs. You can get stuff done without annoyance or tweaking the system.

The iPhone and iPad are so easy to use that a three year old can use them. Which makes them easier to use for ebook readers in schools.

Even a chimp can use it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTiZqCQsfa8

Yes, it's only the one app - but I think that's a win for usability.

It's the video I think of whenever someone on HN is complaining that iOS is hard to use and that things were better in the past.

I'm not sure what a chimp would be able to do at a command line, but I suspect not much.
