I don't see how your experiences have any wider ramifications- tethering and not being able to access a file system have nothing to do with the reasons Mac OS got killed by Windows in the late 80's/early 90's. It was pricing. And, besides, as a power user you can just jailbreak and install NetModem, or you could have gone into Google Apps, forwarded yourself the actual PDF, and then forwarded that forward on. Those are roundabout, but we're talking about edge cases, and in a well designed UI, edge cases are handled in an edge fashion.

--I don't see how your experiences have any wider ramifications- tethering and not being able to access a file system have nothing to do with the reasons Mac OS got killed by Windows in the late 80's/early 90's. It was pricing. I disagree, they where lagging in every department performance, aging OS, mismanagement and making horrible decision to rectify the situation. Copeland was a disaster the CHRP platform was a disaster the Pippen was a disaster the Performa was a disaster, the clones where a disaster. If Price where the only issue it would have been easily rectified. --And, besides, as a power user you can just jailbreak and install NetModem I am sorry but that is probably the worst justification I have heard. If I need to go through a bunch of half hacks to open up a platform then I would rather switch and that was the point of my original post. --and in a well designed UI, edge cases are handled in an edge fashion no well designed UI and systems provide usability and do not force a user to hack out workarounds to account for lack of usability. As well emailing an attachment is not an edge case.
