Thou shalt have no other gods before the ANSI C standard 1435

So what? So the user count is higher. You are equating technical complication with noses. A nose count does NOT make delivering the computing service complicated. AAMOF, it makes it less complicated because the code has to be uniform.

Will you give an example? I don't see how they are more complicated (and I'm talking about software applications).

The complication is that the bare bones software has to be able to handle tons of hardware. This is a complication but that's not at the application level.

We've been trying to tell you how to do the work, not the ASCII characters to type at a compiler, although that has been covered a little bit.

You used Ebay and Google as an example. What I detected is that you hadn't recognized that their business is to deliver pieces of data to their users but not code. There is a huge difference and I'm not sure that you realize this yet. A correct solution to an Ebay problem will generally be a bug if you apply the same analysis to a monitor (which is the resident code piece of an OS).
