I appreciate your reply!

It just seems **SO INCREDIBLY** risky to me to have the same company that created your hardware AND software. Buying from a different hardware company seems to reduce the risk of security/privacy problems.

I trust Google with much of my data but it just really seems too trusting to use the same hardware AND software manufacturer.
