Given that, how many programs do you install even on your computer each month? I bet there are a lot of months where there are zero no new programs.

Install--not that many, but usage on my desktop is far more varied.

I definitely use fewer distinct apps on my desktop than on my mobile. My browser, spotify, MS Office, and Messages, pretty much.

Interesting. My phone is email, browser, phone, music, with very rare branches to other apps. My desktop is email, browser, iTunes, terminal/vim, bbedit, eclipse (yuk), Final Cut, Logic X, Final Draft, office, a bunch of other smaller music specific apps (NMEdit, sysex librarian, etc.) omnigraffle, omnioutliner, and a bunch of others. I know I'm an outlier because of a bunch of uses that web apps will likely never supplant, I'm just always surprised.
