I destroyed the love of my life's samsung galaxy s4 by submerging it in 65,000 litres of water, my 'friend' has offered his old iPhone 3GS as a replacement. I think this is a good thing. But I dont know anything about computers, I can't even programme, the only programming language i know is some HTML :chord:

I kept my iphone 3GS on IOS3 for the 3+ years I had it and it was as fast the day I got it as when I got my iphone5

a few problems with apple stuff that make this strategy hard to follow:
-each OS past the first major upgrade makes your phone slower, in some cases obscenely slower
-you can't downgrade your OS when you find that out nasty surprise
-because so many people update blindly (until IOS8 at least, heh heh) app developers only target the latest OS
-it's basically impossible to get older versions of apps that run on old OSes except in rare circumstances

"We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.
